Highlights this year include:

Worldly Treasures
Discover an antiques and mid-century section with the largest offering yet of this category at the Show, including a special gallery of for-sale items, sponsored by 1stdibs.com, the most powerful online marketplace for vintage furnishings. (I have used many pieces from this fab vintage website in my school projects!)

George Nakashima Retrospective
Explore the works of George Nakashima with a career retrospective, curated by his daughter Mira. This exhibit, presented in part by Pratt Institute students, features several iconic pieces from his personal collection. (I have used many of his pieces in my student work over the year, so I am excited to see this exhibit.)

The Culinary Pavilion
Meet renowned chefs at cooking demos in this eco-friendly kitchen that blends classic style with a modern touch, by award-winning designer Robin Wilson.
