Festival furniture event on Gulf Boulevard March 19
The 2022 United Methodist Women’s Strawberry Festival may be over, but the goal of raising money for charity continues with a furniture sale from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturday, March 19 at the home of Jan Myers, 421 Gulf Blvd.
Jan’s garage, which serves as a storage area for Strawberry Festival bargain and boutique items most of the year, has been turned into a “furniture store.” Shoppers can find a wide range of items, including chairs, lamps, a painted desk, occasional tables, headboards, artwork, specialty items and more.
Several antique pieces, including a rosewood table and a bamboo side table will be available for sale. Jan is also accepting delivery of more pieces until Wednesday, March 16. Call her at 941-964-0562 and leave a message to arrange delivery.
“The other chairs of the Strawberry Festival – Elsa Soderberg and Deb Houck – and I thought having a separate sale made sense, particularly when we had so many nice items donated this year,” Jan said. “And all money raised will go to local charities supported by the United Methodist Women.”
Please do not park in Jan’s driveway. There is parking available on either side of Gulf Boulevard. Jan’s home is located on the east side of the street, just south of the white “picket” fence and across from Sundown properties.
Jan Myers shows off a beautiful antique table to visitor John Mitchell Sr. It will be available to purchase at the sale on Saturday, March 19.
