Originated in 1962, The Philadelphia Antiques Show has grown to be the premier show for Americana in the United States. Sponsored by Drexel Morgan & Co., the Show is famed for its wide array of decorative pieces and furnishings. The 58 dealers featured at the Philadelphia Antiques Show provide patrons the opportunity to purchase exquisite pieces, including a rich variety of Americana, jewelry, textiles, paintings, furniture, porcelain, and folk art. As the 2012 Show moves to its new home in the Pennsylvania Convention Center, visitors and collectors will have the opportunity to explore remarkable collections, attend educational lectures, view exquisite designer rooms sponsored by 1stdibs.com, and experience the 2012 Loan Exhibition, Where History Meets Medicine. The Show is Penn Medicine’s largest fundraiser, and proceeds from the 2012 Show will benefit the Penn Lung Transplant Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion Program.
