The Prescott Antique Show & Vintage Market has its origins in the late 1980s (originally called "Antiques on the Square") and held in downtown Prescott, growing from several hundred in attendance to several thousands today. Sponsors of the show for the past 18 years have been Thumb Butte and Yavapai chapters of the Questers. 100% of show profits are donated to area preservation and restoration projects. The Questers is a non-profit international organization whose mission is to preserve and restore historic sites, buildings and artifacts - and to educate the public about its heritage. Two recent Questers projects include:
• The Questers Women's Suffrage Traveling Exhibit - a free 6 panel, life-size exhibit featuring the history of the Women's Suffrage Movement / 19th Amendment. Suitable for exhibit at schools, museums, special events and available state-wide.
• The Keepsakes Roadshow, modeled after the popular Antiques Roadshow, is a free program where people come together in their venue of choice to share stories about their treasured keepsakes. No appraisals are given. This "show and tell" trip down memory lane is always fun and informative! Suitable for 55+ communities and other groups.

Jerome State Historic Park Famous Homes
The Douglas Mansion, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has been an eye-catching landmark in Jerome since 1916, when James S. Douglas built it on the hill just above his Little Daisy Mine.Douglas designed the house as a hotel for mining officials and investors as well as for his own family. It featured a wine cellar, billiard room, marble shower, steam heat, and, much ahead of its time, a central vacuum system. Douglas was most proud of the fact that the house was constructed of adobe bricks that were made on the site.
He also built the Little Daisy Hotel near the mine as a dormitory for the miners. The concrete structure still stands.
This former home is now a museum operated by the Arizona State Parks and is devoted to history of the Jerome area and the Douglas family. The museum features exhibits of photographs, artifacts, and minerals in addition to a video presentation and a 3-D model of the town with its underground mines. One room, the Douglas library, is restored as a period room. There are more displays outside along with a picnic area offering a beautiful panoramic view of the Verde Valley.
