PBS’s most-watched ongoing series, Antiques Roadshow, will kick off its 29th season on Monday, Jan. 6, at 7 p.m. with its first-ever visit to Bentonville, Arkansas. The three episodes were filmed at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and will air on the first three Mondays in January. January 6, 13 and  20.

Executive Producer Marsha Bemko said in a press release,

Working with Arkansas PBS to bring ‘Antiques Roadshow’ to Bentonville this past May was a highlight of our tour. Even the rainy day couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm of guests or our amazement at some of the discoveries made, including a 1960 Elvis Presley-signed ice cream cone display and the charming story of the guest’s father’s unusual encounter with the superstar!

Special guests for the event include:

Sam Farrell, senior producer, “Antiques Roadshow”
Nigel Freeman, appraiser, “Antiques Roadshow”
Kim Teehee, Cherokee Nation representative
Austen Barron Bailly, chief curator, Crystal Bridges and The Momentary
