When you arrive, PBS Reno staff and volunteers will check you in and guide you to the appropriate specialist. Be prepared to wait in line, although seating will be available.

Will there be anyone to help carry my items?

My item is too big to bring.
That's ok! We recommend you bring a photo of the item to show the specialist what it looks like, any artist/creator signature marks, and what material it is made of. This will suffice for the verbal valuations.
I still have questions, who do I contact?
