51st ANNUAL OUTDOOR FINE ART & FINE CRAFT SHOW

The Rehoboth Art League’s signature summer event, the Outdoor Show, returns to our historic Henlopen Acres campus in 2024 to celebrate its 51st year. More than 100 artists and artisans from around the country will display and sell their fine art and fine crafts amidst the Rehoboth Art League’s 3.5+ acre wooded campus, just blocks from the busy downtown Rehoboth Avenue in coastal Delaware. The annual Outdoor Show is a juried event yielding exceptional work, and many of the artists actively enjoy demonstrating their creativity during each day of the show.

The Outdoor Show is not simply a fine art and fine crafts show, but it is an unforgettable summer event full of activities, including great food, live music, artist demonstrations, gallery exhibits, beautiful gardens, the historic Peter Marsh Homestead, and a Dogfish Head Beer Garden.

REFRESHMENTS

The League’s Annual Outdoor Show traditionally includes a variety of food and drink options, including local favorites such as The Point Coffee House & Bake Shop and Chesapeake & Maine‘s seafood-centric menu. Blue Scoop‘s Miss Eleanor trailer will be serving up ice cream treats outside of the Children’s Studio, with proceeds benefitting RAL’s Visual Arts Outreach program, which offers free arts education opportunities to young people in underserved areas of Sussex County. In the afternoon, wander the Homestead Garden, where Dogfish Head craft brews will be offered, with proceeds to benefit the care of RAL’s historic gardens, which we maintain in the vision of our organization’s founder, Louise Corkran.

MUSIC

Our Outdoor Show annually offers an array of performing musicians for our attendees to enjoy, located in the memorial garden in the center of campus, as well as roaming musical acts. Check back as we confirm additional bands to our schedule of live music.

DOCENT FUNDRAISER

Each year, the League’s Docent team, which volunteers in the Peter Marsh Homestead to greet guests and provide information, holds a fundraiser with the goal of raising funds for preservation projects on campus. Participating Outdoor Show artists each donate a piece of work and patrons may bid online–or buy pieces outright–over the course of the event. Check back as we add unique items to the auction.

RAFFLE

As part of the Outdoor Show, the Rehoboth Art League raffles off an original piece of artwork to benefit our exhibition and educational programs. Check back for additional information.
