Antiques, Garden Show scheduled

Highlighting the 13th annual Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville will be garden sheds, innovative landscape designs, expert lecturers and finely crafted furniture and accessories from sought-after periods.

The event is planned for Jan. 23 through 26 at the Nashville Convention Center, 601 Commerce St. Benefiting Cheekwood Museum and Botanical Garden and the Exchange Club of Nashville Charities, this year’s show carries a theme of “Celebrating Garden Sheds.”

Famed New York interior designer Bunny Williams returns as honorary chairperson, welcoming a Who’s Who-style lineup of gardening and collectibles lecturers including Susie Coelho, host, HGTV “Surprise Gardener;’ Dominque Browning, editor-in-chief House and Garden Magazine; and Christopher Radko, holiday ornaments and collectibles designer.

Recognized as one of the “Top Twenty Events in the Southeast” by Southeastern Tourism Society, the show will also feature a variety of garden sheds, 150 antique and horticultural booths and eight landscaped gardens by renowned experts and exhibitors. In addition to period antique furniture, premier antique dealers from across the country will exhibit porcelain, silver, jewelry, paintings and works of art from Europe and the Orient.

“Just like garden sheds – which can be rustic or stately, homey or showy – pour 13th annual event will delight every taste and style,” said show chair Karen Fleming. “The exhibitors and their collection of fine antiques and collectibles have never been better. The landscaped gardens and horticultural booth will provide a wintry welcome to nature’s blooms and beauty, creating a visual vacation for every attendee.”
