Free to attend, this even will feature works by more than 70 professional artists.

Founded by Betsy Wyeth in 1949, the Chadds Ford Art Sale & Show happens March 20-22, with special events including an art salon, artisan showcase, art tours and a children’s art cafe. The event is free and open to the public. The featured artist is Shawn Faust, an award-winning Brandywine Valley artist who creates magnificent oil paintings of horses, landscapes and people. Some of Faust’s famous commissions include Barbaro and Seattle Slew. The Donating Artist is Ana Delia McCormack. Her beautiful florals and landscapes are infused with warm colors that reflect her strong Latin influence.

The show features works by more than 70 professional artists from the Brandywine Valley and beyond.  A complete list of participating artists and artwork samples are available at cfes.ucfsd.org/artshow.
