The Tawasentha Chapter of the National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution is holding its 43rd annual Antiques Show and Sale on Feb. 15 and 16 at the Academy of the Holy Names, 1075 New Scotland Road, Albany.

Times for the show will be Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.  Admission will be $5.  Homemade food will be available for purchase from the Kalico Kitchen, and appraisers will be available as well.

The Tawasentha Chapter of the NSDAR recently celebrated its 106th anniversary.  Proceeds from the antiques show make it possible for the chapter, a not-for-profit organization, to provide scholarships to local students, as well as funds for historic preservation and veterans’ projects.

Members of the Daughters of the American Revolution are able to trace their ancestry back to patriots who participated in the Revolutionary War.  New members are always welcome. A membership table will be set up at the antiques show.  The Tawasentha Chapter assists potential members with genealogical research.
