If it is July it is time for this long-running festival. In addition to the extensive art/craft selection they offer a variety of musical performances, demonstrations, and kids’ activities. Plus an art show in the barn, a silent auction, and book/white elephant sale. You can spend a whole day here, very easily, and maybe come back the next day, too. Just saying.
I’ll be showing my paintings here.
I’ll be showing a selection of my paintings in an exhibit next month. I’ll be mentioning it again, I know, but it’s coming up fast!

I’m very excited about the exhibition and am grateful for the chance to show a good-sized group of my paintings. I hope if you are in the area during this time, you can stop in and take a look.
Next up – one of my favorite shows, and one I’ve been participating in since the 1990’s – Art-in-the-Park at West Park.
The show is held in an arboretum/city park in a historic district. It’s a beautiful location with a bandshell and elaborate fountain, plus many shade-producing trees, of course! If you are in the area this Saturday, I hope you might stop by. I’ll be showing my acrylic paintings.
Next weekend I’ll be at this festival in Hellertown, PA, just outside Bethlehem, PA. I’ve done it before and it’s a nice spot – compact and yet with plenty to do, in a garden-like setting. If you are in the area, I hope you will stop in! I’ll be showing my paintings.
This next weekend, Friday-Sunday, May 25-27, I’ll be at this show in Allentown, PA. It’s a revival of the long-running Mayfair Festival, now sponsored by Cedar Crest College, and to be held on the campus. I am really looking forward to the show and anticipate having a great time there.
Take a look at the website – Mayfair at Cedar Crest – to see the offerings – art, music, kids’ activities, arboretum tour. I hope to have some time to get around to some of these venues myself!
Art show hours are Noon to 8 PM (the overall show closes at 10 PM). Admission and parking are free. I’ll be showing my paintings here. Note – I’ll be in the indoor artists’ section.
Yes, it is time for this event once again – a whole show devoted only to tiles and tile work. It’s a favorite of mine, and I’ve posted about it over several years – if you search this blog (use the term tile festival) you’ll get a flavor of what it is about.
You can easily spend the whole day here – there is a wide variety of work to look at. And – the show is held under large tents, so weather is not a factor.
If you are in the neighborhood of Doylestown, PA, stop in and see me!
The last day to take in this holiday gift event at the Baum School of Art is December 21.

The Holiday Gift Gallery’s reception hours are 6-8 PM, December 21. Baum School of Art is located at 510 Linden Street, Allentown, PA.
