Art on Fishing Bay, one of Middlesex County’s premier art shows, has teamed up again with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society on this 11th anniversary year of the Southern Chesapeake Leukemia Cup series. Art on Fishing exceeded all previous attendance records in 2008. So mark your calendar for Friday, June 5, 5:00 – 9:00 PM, at the Fishing Bay Yacht Club in Deltaville and arrive early to have your pick of arts and crafts produced by many local and regional exhibiting artists.

Talented exhibitors will again display their creations to both browsers and buyers. Each will generously contribute one item to the popular Leukemia Cup Auction at the Fishing Bay Yacht Club on Friday evening, July 10, during the big Regatta weekend. A complete list of exhibitors will be announced later in May. While patrons hunt for the perfect art objects to complement their home and cottage decors, refreshments and musical entertainment will be on tap. Admission is a donation benefiting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and a hors d’oeuvre to share with fellow art aficionados.

Proceeds generated by the show will benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s mission to support patients battling blood cancers.
