All proceeds from the sale, which will run from 8-11 a.m. on Saturday, May 12, will support the Mattapoisett Historical Society.

Donating items for the sale is easy. Donations are accepted at 5 Church Street in Mattapoisett on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m.-noon. Anyone with donations is asked to call 508-758-2844 before coming by.

The historical society will accept gently-used household items suitable for resale. Members will not accept: appliances, large furniture, electronics, building products, books or clothing.
