Selected based on their prominence in the industry and expertise in decorating with a breadth of design materials, this group will be supporting the fair and building on the Winter Antiques Show’s engagement with designers during the Show’s run.

The 2017 loan exhibition, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum: Revolution & Evolution, honors the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum (AARFAM), one of the Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia. The exhibition salutes the museum, which is the oldest continuously operating institution in the United States dedicated solely to the collection, exhibition and preservation of American folk art, commemorating its 60th anniversary in 2017.
