YORK, Pa. — February is the shortest month of the year, so it makes sense to start it off with a bang. Enter the “Original 182nd Semi-Annual York Antiques Show & Sale” Friday and Saturday, Feb. 2-3, at Memorial Hall East, York Fairgrounds Convention & Expo Center, 334 Carlisle Avenue, York, Pa.
Show promoter Melvin L. Arion calls the event “one of the premier events in the mid-Atlantic” and promises the show will offer enough variety to “ensure anyone can find a new treasure at York.”
