The Iconic Summer Show Will Return to The Baltimore Convention Center with a New Name in 2016:The Baltimore Art, Antique & Jewelry Show

On the heels of a successful show in Baltimore, the Palm Beach Show Group announces 2016 dates and a new name for the Baltimore Summer Antiques Show. Accurately highlighting a larger cross section of items on offer at the show, the event will return as the Baltimore Art, Antique & Jewelry Show, August 25-28, 2016.

The name change from The Baltimore Summer Antiques Show to The Baltimore Art, Antique & Jewelry Show will more accurately highlight the diverse dealer mix represented at the show. Participating dealer input and progressive market trends contributed to the evolutionary change.

According to Scott Diament, President & CEO of the Palm Beach Show Group, several factors were considered in the decision to change the name of the show:

“The fine art market is strong and getting stronger, the demand by collectors for quality art from all periods including Old Masters to contemporary works cannot be ignored. The number of dealers currently participating in the show that deal in paintings and sculpture rival all shows in the Mid-Atlantic region. We want the name of the show to be inclusive of fine art so that collectors, curators and art enthusiasts know that leading galleries an be found at the show.

Additionally, the presence of jewelry at the Baltimore Show has expanded over the years with an emphasis on antique and estate jewelry, especially the periods of art deco, retro and art nouveau as well as signed pieces.”

At the 2016 show collectors can expect a Palm Beach Show Group experience like that of the New York Art, Antique & Jewelry Show and the Palm Beach Jewelry, Art & Antique Show -- adorned with lush white carpeting, lavish floral arrangements and a mix of dealers representing a breadth and depth of subject matter and disciplines unmatched in any other show in the country.

“The Baltimore Summer Antiques Show has always been an iconic event in the industry,” stated Diament. “We have always said that there is something for every collector at the Baltimore Show, so this name change better reflects the event. Our intent is to attract even more collectors, art advisors, museum curators and interior designers interested in antiques, fine art and jewelry.”

The Baltimore Art, Antique & Jewelry Show is produced by the Palm Beach Show Group, whose portfolio of events includes nine other shows across the United States.

The Baltimore Art, Antique & Jewelry Show will return to the Baltimore Convention Center for its 36th year this August 25-28, 2016.
