[edit] Introduction
The San Francisco Fall Antiques Show (SFFAS), established in 1982, is the oldest continuously operating international antiques show on the West Coast and is ranked among the top such fairs in the world. The event includes the show itself featuring approximately 70 international dealers, a loan exhibition, a lecture series, and related benefit parties.
Every object at The San Francisco Fall Antiques Show is vetted by a committee of experts in each of the Show's categories. Vetting is the process that aims to authenticate works of art and antiques, assuring collectors that they can purchase with confidence.
[edit] Enterprise for High School Students
The San Francisco Fall Antiques Show (SFFAS) was established in 1982 as the major fundraising event for Enterprise for High School Students.
Established in 1969, Enterprise for High School Students (EHSS) is an SF citywide youth development agency that guides teens to explore career interests, find and retain jobs, and engage in experiential learning. Annually, EHSS serves over 2000 students, ages 14-18, from both public and independent schools. Through a broad array of programs, Enterprise provides a means for students to gain an understanding of how their interests and talents can be integrated into employment, community service, and educational opportunities, while finding his/her potential. The mission of Enterprise for High School Students is to increase student preparedness to explore and pursue career paths through training, counseling and guidance; to offer a variety of experiential options within the work world; and to provide a support network to raise youth’s personal expectations for success.
