10am to 2pm. Free. The History Center’s Fabulous Floridiana Auction. Orange County Regional History Center 65 E Central Blvd, Orlando, Florida 32801. Take Home a Piece of Central Florida’s Past!
As
we get ready for our big upcoming renovations, we’ve found a stash of
treasures in the museum’s hidden corners. From gargantuan gators to
magical mermaids, we got just the right amazing object to bring a true
touch of Florida and fabulous fun to your home or office!
We’re
talking about everything from massive manatees to a compact King
Kong—even the pretend claw of a giant sloth, and it’s pretty scary. In
short, a plethora of one-of-a-kind treasures, ranging in size from 6
inches to more than 6 feet, that spell out the wild, wacky, and
wonderful state we’re in.
The Fabulous Floridiana live auction,
will be led by a professional auctioneer. Proceeds benefit History Center
programs. The museum will offer free admission, and you can examine our
treasures starting at 10 a.m
Please note
that most of these props or models go back to the museum’s opening
almost 20 years ago; they must be sold “as is,” so you’ll want to check
them out before bidding.
