2010 Designer Showhouse for the Arts: An Iconic Seaside Home Inspired by Icons of Eras Past


Make plans to attend the 2nd Annual Designer Showhouse for the Arts. This year's Showhouse is the home of Seaside Town Founders Daryl and Robert Davis, located at 115 Seaside Avenue, just two blocks east of Central Square. All proceeds from the Designer Showhouse for the Arts benefit the Cultural Arts Association of Walton County, the umbrella organization that supports the arts through leadership, advocacy, funding, programs and education.



Fifteen designers have taken inspiration from icons of the 1940s to the 1960s—legends like Ernest Hemingway, Audrey Hepburn, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor and Truman Capote. This year’s designers are Melissa Quinn Bartlett; Susan Massey and Luanne Kelly of Bohlert-Massey; Holly Shipman; Libby Baker; Seleta Hayes Howard and Jennifer Hunter; Dale Trice, Kati Lockley and Tina Vital of Design Services of Florida; Eastern Lake Nursery; Dragonfly Designs; Vera Bradley with Baekgaard and Lynn Nesmith; Rachel Craige; Bill Musso and Todd Falconbury of Musso Design Group; Susan Byrd of Pizitz with Shabby Slips; Tammy Massey; Darrell Russell of A Boheme Design; and Paige Schnell, Anna Kay Porch and Bess Marshall of Tracery Interiors. Last year’s Designer Showhouse for the Arts will be featured in an upcoming issue of Traditional Home Magazine.



The Showhouse will be open through July 4, each Wednesday through Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. Admission is $20 for nonmembers, $15 for CAA members, and $10 for children under 13. Tickets can be purchased at the door or at CulturalArtsAssociation.com. Parking is along Smolian Circle.
