From 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm there will be an “Exclusive Preview Party” where guests can view and purchase artwork made that morning. The $50 ticket allows for admission up to 2 people and $25 of the ticket cost can be applied towards an art purchase. Afterwards, a “Wine & Cheese with the Artists” reception and a wet paint sale will be held from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Admission is $10 per guest and they can view displays of the work completed by artists that day. Come out and support your local talented artists. Please join us for this fun event that steps back into time when early American illustrators and painters such as Frank Schoonover, Howard Pyle, Bayard Berndt, and N.C. Wyeth were inspired by the beauty of our region and painted outdoors. The CFHS is located on route 1 and Creek Road in historic Chadds Ford.
