Leland Little Auction & Estate Sales – New Hillsborough Auction Gallery
“We spent ten very successful and productive years at our previous location on South Nash Street,” said Leland Little of Leland Little Auction & Estate Sales, Ltd., “but this new gallery is a wonderful venue for showcasing fine and decorative arts. We are offering a professional and safe environment for buyers and sellers to view items from our regional collections that come to market.”
The June 13-14 sale will be preceded by a week-long preview, highlighted by an Opening Night Gala on Thursday, June 11, beginning at 6 p.m. Then, on Friday, June 12, at 3 p.m., a special lecture will be presented by Johanna M. Brown, Director of Collections and Curator of Moravian Decorative Arts (the topic of her lecture) at the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts (www.MESDA.org)
