Speakers include: designer Ellie Cullman, consistently recognized by “Architectural Digest” on its AD 100 top designers list; Johanna McBrien, Editor-in-Chief of “Antiques & Fine Art” magazine and InCollect.com; Nancy Moses, award-winning author of Lost in the Museum: Hidden Treasures and the Stories they Tell; and Alexandra Kirtley, Curator of American Decorative Arts at Philadelphia Museum of Art.

In addition to the designers, curators and authors sharing their stories, there is also a special loan exhibit, “Secret Treasures,” that is filled with unique objects from dealers’ personal collections. Many of the collectibles have seldom been exhibited publicly.

Long regarded as one of the best Shows of its kind, this year’s event features 58 dealers specializing in a wide range of periods and styles – offering a selection of furniture, fine and decorative arts, silver, textiles, porcelain and jewelry from the 17th through the mid-20th centuries. More contemporary art is being infused into the mix as well, which is a change from years past.

Presented by The Haverford Trust Company, the Show has raised funds for Penn Medicine since 1962.
