Design Show Goes Southern


“Southern Celebrations Traditions Handed
Down” was the theme of this year’s Washington
Winter Show at the Katzen Arts Center at American
University which began with a welcome to sponsors,
benefactors and designers followed by a
gala patrons and young collector reception on
Jan. 9. The next day was highlighted by a lecture
“Exploring the Charleston Kitchen” with awardwinning
authors Matt and Ted Lee and a tasty
Southern picnic lunch. On Saturday, Julia Reed
spoke of “Ham Biscuits, Hostess Gowns, and Other
Southern Specialties.” This year’s loan exhibit
was “Celebrations at Stratford Hall Family, Food,
and Festivities.” Forty-five premier American and
European dealers participated in the show that benefited
the Bishop John T. Walker School for Boys,
THEARC and the Founders Board of St. John’s
Community Services.
