Antiques and Discoveries: An Evening with Drew Pritchard
This event is in the past
Step into the fascinating world of antiques and architectural salvage with Drew Pritchard, the charismatic star of the 17-season hit series Salvage Hunters and one of Britain’s leading antique dealers. This special evening offers an up-close look at Drew’s life, career, and the stories behind some of his most remarkable finds.
Drew will share personal reflections from his decades-long journey in the antiques world – starting with the launch of his own showroom and restoration company at just 23, to becoming the go-to expert for unique finds and intricate restorations.
Refusing to conform to anything other than his own eye, you’ll hear about the thrill of discovering rare objects, the challenges of restoring them, and how his passion for history and design shapes his approach to everything he does.
You’ll have the opportunity to ask Drew your own questions about antiques, how to spot hidden value, and what it’s really like hunting for salvage across the UK and beyond.
If you’re a fan of Salvage Hunters or simply intrigued by the charm of antiques, this is an evening not to be missed. Expect candid stories, expert tips, and a few surprises from Drew’s eclectic career.
“Most things become almost scrap before they become important and interesting.”
Drew Pritchard
