The Lauritzen Gardens Antiques Show is a sensational visual experience, with high quality antiques, inspiring speakers, and inventive floral installations. Set among the beautiful fall garden, it is truly a highlight of the season, which is why we are sad to share the show’s cancelation for 2020. Lauritzen Gardens’ priority is the health and safety of our community and show partners, including our speakers, staff, vendors, antiques exhibitors, patrons, and volunteers. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold, our leadership decided that it would not be ethically or financially prudent for the organization to enter into binding contracts on an event we could not promise to fruition, while maintaining the show’s stellar reputation.

A milestone and a memory: a look back at our 15th anniversary show.
As we’ve rearranged rooms and found the perfect nooks for all the beautiful pieces we discovered this past weekend, we’ve been reflecting on our 15th anniversary show. The combination of exhibitors, speakers and guests that attended this year truly made for a unique and inspiring event.

A Gen Z’s Take on Antiques
For my 8th birthday, I asked my Grandma Becky for a trip to an antique store. I brushed my fingers across the assorted furniture, stood eye-level with the glass case full of fine jewelry and dreamed of being the kind of woman that carries beautiful, vintage handbags. With my birthday budget, I chose elbow-length gloves that made me feel oh-so-fancy and an intricate floral hat I thought would be just perfect for having tea.
