Comm Rockstars: Chadds Ford Art Show

Celebrating a tradition of artists in Chadds Ford to benefit our kids

I’m chatting with Jess Eldridge, a community rockstar who volunteers countless hours to the students and staff at Chadds Ford Elementary. This year, she is the Co-President of the Parent-Teacher Organization and Chair of the Chadds Ford Art Show.

Jess invited Rachel Coleman and Bill Sweeney, two artists showcasing and selling their work at the upcoming show, to join the conversation. We discuss why the show is so essential to the school and the broader Chadds Ford community, what types of programs it supports at the school, and how it helps keep our local art community vibrant. I hope you enjoy it!

Check out the Art Show Home Page to learn more about the show, including details about the youth art classes, a list of artists attending the show, and the online auction of donated art, which opens next week. 

Thanks for reading Connect Chadds Ford, a reader-supported publication. I hope it can contribute to building community in our neck of the Brandywine woods. If you enjoy my work, I’d love for you to consider becoming a free or paid subscriber!
