Costen House Art Show to be held at the Delmarva Discovery Center on Saturday, October 19.

The Seventh Annual Costen House Museum Art Show will be held at the Delmarva Discovery Center in Pocomoke on Saturday, October 19, from 10 am until 4 pm. There will be no charge for admission to attend this event. 

For the past six years this show has brought talented local and regional artists together in a museum setting to exhibit their works. 
A highlight of this year’s show will be a demonstration by Chincoteague carver Reggie Birch, well known for creating old-looking decoys and restoring carvings from the past. Among the other artists for the show will be Robin Spalding, winner of the fine art competition at the Pocomoketoberfest juried show earlier this year.  This talented young artist creates imaginative and flawless works combining fine art and photography. 

This year’s show will also feature a bake sale, a display of children’s artwork, and a raffle for a painting of a historic Pocomoke building by artist Jenny Somers. Visitors will be able to tour the Costen House at 206 Market Street during the hours of the Art Show. Proceeds from the show benefit the Costen House Museum and its garden.
