Announcing that the ninth annual Cotswold Art & Antiques Dealers’ Association Fair will take place at Compton Verney Art Gallery and Park in Warwickshire from Thursday 14 to Sunday 17 October.

Fair director Cathy Hunt, of Catherine Hunt Oriental Antiques, said:

“The Cotswolds has long been known for its fine art and antiques shops, a destination for many collectors and interior designers. Following the disruption caused by the pandemic, which meant we could not hold our fair last year, it will be new beginnings for the fair in its new venue at Compton Verney. Not only will our members put on a magnificent show with a great variety of fine art and antiques from across their individual businesses in the Cotswolds, all of which will be for sale, but visitors will also be able to enjoy Compton Verney Art Gallery’s exhibition and treasures, and also a stroll through its Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown designed park.”

26 exhibitors, mainly members of CADA, are joined by specialist guest exhibitors including BBC Antiques Roadshow expert Lennox Cato, Hickmet Fine Arts, Stuart Boyd Fine Art, Shaw Edwards Antiques, Stephen Kalms Antiques, Freya Mitton and Brian Watson Antique Glass. 

Important News about The Cotswold Art & Antiques Dealers’ Association Fair:

I am pleased to announce that our Art and Antiques Fair at Compton Verney is on! The Fair will now take place from Thursday 14th to Sunday 17th October 2021 inclusive.

The CADA committee recently met to decide whether to proceed with the CADA Fair at Compton Verney Art Gallery this October (postponed from October 2020).

After taking into account the safety measures that Compton Verney implements when open to the public, the latest information available regarding the roll-out of vaccines, and the current easing of lockdown (whilst adhering to any government guidelines that may still be in place in October) a unanimous decision was made by the full CADA committee to go ahead with our Fair this October.

We do then very much look forward to providing a warm welcome to all, with invitations to the Fair available in the coming months as a download ticket from this website or you will receive a ticket in the post.

Thank you as always for your support in these difficult times and so good to be sending out good news.

With kind regards

Alex Puddy
Chairman
The Cotswold Art & Antiques Dealers’ Association (CADA)
