Antiques and Collectibles Faire


Are you searching for some new items to decorate your apartment home? Whether you are in the process of redecorating or if you love to watch episodes of "Antiques Road Show," you will undoubtedly love this upcoming Corona event - The Fourteenth Annual Corona Antiques and Collectibles Faire! This event unites antiques vendors and collectors under one roof, in addition to offering a glimpse into the past. The motto of this event is "If it isn't old, it won't be sold!" but please note, the faire is not a flea market. Although you cannot sell your personal artifacts, there will be plenty of licensed vendors to purchase rare items from.

The first antiques and collectibles faire took place in 2002 with approximately 30 dealers and 3,000 guests, and has grown to become one of the Corona Heritage Park and Museum's most successful events, with vendor spaces regularly selling out.

The 2015 event takes place this Saturday, June 6 at the Heritage Park and Museum, with doors opening promptly at 8 AM. According to Inner Circle Corona, visitors can expect to see a range of items, including "vintage decor, folk art, depression glass, silver, china, tin plates, dolls, furniture and collectible do-dads" from dealers from all over the Inland Empire. Aside from the art, antiques and collectibles, visitors will also find a variety of tasty food, including barbecue, kettle corn and fresh-squeezed lemonade. The Corona Heritage Park and Museum will be open during the faire, too. Once the faire ends at 3 PM, explore some of the exhibits that the museum currently houses. Admission to the antiques and collectibles fair is free!

If you have never visited the Heritage Park and Museum, it is located at 510 West Foothill Parkway in Corona. From your apartment home at Montecito at Dos Lagos, the museum is less than a 15-minute drive away!
