‘Antiques Roadshow’ set to air episodes from 2019 stop at Crocker Art Museum

The Public Broadcasting Service’s highest rated show, “Antiques Roadshow,” is set to air a trio of episodes filmed at Sacramento’s Crocker Art Museum.

“Antiques Roadshow” set up shop at the Crocker in May. The event drew more than 20,000 ticket requests and a crowd of nearly 2,700 people who sought appraisals for keepsakes and knick-knacks, which included a signed Joe DiMaggio game-used bat and a prototype Ark of the Covenant from 1981’s “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”

The show’s last stop in Sacramento came in 2000. The PBS program, which has been nominated for 17 Emmy Awards across 23 seasons, is scheduled to air the Sacramento episodes Feb. 17 and 24, and March 16 at 8 p.m.

“After a 19-year hiatus, it was a pleasure to bring one of our viewers’ favorite shows to Sacramento and partner with the Crocker Art Museum for a tremendously exciting community event,” said David Lowe, president and general manager of PBS KVIE.

“Behind the Scenes at Antiques Roadshow Crocker Art Museum” gives viewers an early glimpse behind the appraisal process, airing at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 17.
