Discovering America’s Treasures With Lark Mason

How do treasures make their way from the walls, attics and closets of homes to museums and auction houses? Lark E. Mason Jr. will provide a behind-the-scenes look at how incredible works of art and craftsmanship are rediscovered and authenticated. Drawing on his experience as an appraiser with Sotheby’s, New York and his involvement with a very popular PBS show involving antiques, Mr. Mason will share the stories of discovery that delight and inform us about art, history and the human tendency to collect.
