The energy of the crowd was electric at this year's preview party for the 46th Annual Academy of Notre Dame de Namur Invitational Fine Art Show and Sale in Villanova, PA. Hundreds of art enthusiasts graced the Tudor Revival-style mansion built in 1893.

The exhibition, which ran from January 26 - Sunday, February 3, 2019, featured the work of over 100 artists in a variety of mediums, including oils, watercolors, acrylics, ceramics, metals and glass. The organizers did a fabulous job!
