Pyramid Atlantic Art Center is hosting its third annual Upscale Yard Sale on Saturday Aug. 31 and Sunday Sept. 1 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Pyramid parking lot at 8230 Georgia Avenue in Silver Spring MD. Think of it as an outdoor estate sale as this event is always packed with a stunning array of antiques, collectibles, mountains of costume jewelry (and a few pieces of gold and sterling silver jewelry), art, tons of furniture from modern to antique), home decor, lamps, a flat screen TV, books and so much more. The sale even features a five-foot-tall carved wooden eagle! We expect to add a giant gumball machine to the sale in the next few days. Prices range from $1 to $2,500. Check out some 600 photos at www.facebook.com/orionsattic and support Pyramid Atlantic's mission to build communities that give life to printmaking, papermaking and the book arts. Donations are still coming so who knows what else will be for sale by Labor Day weekend. Check the photo album throughout the week to see the latest additions to the sale. Also note that we'll have strong-bodied volunteers on hand to help people load heavy items into their vehicles. Our company organizes this event every year as part of our work as social entrepreneurs. Because we're an antiques and collectibles company that runs estate sales, we see to it that no junk is included in this sale. We don't allow donations that fail to meet our standards. Pyramid Atlantic also has a great base of support, generating the kinds of estate sale quality pieces you see in these photos. Some donors have given entire apartments to this fundraiser.
