Posted

The 42nd annual Art & Antiques Show gala kicked off the holiday season of giving for The Women’s Board of Wolfson Children’s Hospital on Nov. 30.

The show’s theme, “A Place in the Sun,” featured Lilly Pulitzer-inspired decor with hundreds of guests in attendance. The gala, giving nod to old Palm Beach glamour, brought together benefactors, Women’s Board members and residents throughout Northeast Florida and South Georgia. Held at the Prime F. Osborn III Convention Center in downtown Jacksonville, the occasion celebrated the Women’s Board’s five-year, $4 million pledge to raise awareness and support the creation of a new NICU at Wolfson Children’s Hospital, made to care for the smallest patients.  

The 2018 Art & Antiques Show was held Nov. 29 through Dec. 2, featuring art, jewelry, fashion, textiles and furnishings from Old World to contemporary design periods, under one roof. The four-day event also featured a children’s fashion show with current and former patients of Wolfson Children’s Hospital, as well as lecturers and special guests.
