Vintage Hot Spots – Athens Schoolhouse Antique Show Lexington, KY
Recently my husband and I took a trip south towards the Lexington Kentucky area for our anniversary. We made many stops along the way and this was one of my favorites.
Isn’t this this old schoolhouse a shoppers dream? The building was one of my favorite parts about the trip The character in the school itself is so much fun. I just couldn’t wait to get inside of the Athens Schoolhouse Antique Show. The show recently made a move from the Lexington Loose Leaf Tobacco Warehouse.
As you take a trip down through the long hallways, you feel like a little kid again. The show is extremely organized with each vendor in a schoolroom or participating in the booths of the large gym.
There is plenty of glassware, furniture and art to look at and just when you think it’s over you find another hallway!
The old lunchroom is a great place to rest your feet and grab a bite to eat with large picnic tables and an eating area with even more antiques.
While you are there you’ll want to be sure and visit the old school gym and stage for a host of fabulous booths.
That’s it for this trip to the Athens Schoolhouse Antique Show, but mark your calendars the next show is May 9th-11th.
