Rehoboth Art League Cottage Tour to go virtual July 1-31

The Rehoboth Art League is pleased to continue its Cottage Tour, now in its 72nd year.

With the health and safety of the community in mind, and to accommodate the pandemic recovery, the art league will offer the event as a virtual tour, viewable throughout the month of July from the comfort of home. Cottage Tour committee volunteers have worked hard to vet and secure another special selection of local homes to showcase the best of the area’s art and design.

Homes on this year’s tour offer a variety of landscapes, interiors and architectural designs, ranging from historically significant to contemporary. Some homes have quite an evolving history, and many homeowners showcase memories, artwork and collections in creative ways.

This collection of coastal homes is also presented online through an artist’s interpretation, with an interview and glimpses at the creative process of this year’s selected Cottage Tour artist and award-winning plein air painter Jacalyn Beam. This year, for the first time, the artist’s original rendition of the Peter Marsh Homestead will be auctioned off as a fundraiser in support of the league’s year-round programs.

Tickets are available online at rehobothartleague.org and come with a personalized login valid during tour dates. Each $40 ticket purchase provides unlimited access to the online content from Friday, July 1 to Sunday, July 31. The virtual tour may be conveniently accessed from the comfort of home through a laptop, desktop, tablet or smartphone.

As always, proceeds from the Cottage Tour support the Rehoboth Art League’s exhibition and education programs.
