The Philadelphia Show returns this month at the Philadephia Museum of Art (East Terrace)- and we look forward to seeing you there!

The Benefit Preview is on Thursday, April 27.  The Show then runs through Sunday, April 30.  Show hours are 11AM to 7PM (to 6 PM on Saturday and 5 PM on Sunday).

The Show features fine dealers from around the country in a variety of fields.  Founded in 1962 as the University Hospital Antiques Show, the show benefited and was organized by Penn Medicine until 2018.

In 2018, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, with The Women's Committee and the many volunteers that served the show for years took over the responsibility of planning the Show. Proceeds benefit the museum’s Division of Digital Resources and Content Strategy.

It was an honor and pleasure to speak at the Nantucket Historical Association on August 8. 2022 in conjunction with the ongoing exhibition Treasures from the Billings Collection of Asian Art that continues through November 1.  Please link below to hear this illustrated presentation by Steven J. Chait on the remarkable 500 year history of Chihese porcelain in the West.
