Best Bet for a Art"full" Delaware Weekend

If you can steal yourself away from the Olympic games this weekend, there are actually quite a few interesting things to get into this weekend.

Rehoboth Art League will be hosting their 35th annual outdoor show Saturday and Sunday (rain or shine) from 10am until 5pm. More than 100 artists will be exhibiting their artwork for sale. The weather tomorrow is supposed to define perfection, so grab the kids (entertainment avail. for all ages) and jot on down to Henlopen Acres. Shuttle service is available as we all know parking can be a drag in Rehoboth sometimes. http://www.rehobothartleague.org/

If you're in Dover and enjoy live entertainment you are in luck this weekend. Clear Space Productions will finish up their two-nights at the Schwartz Center presenting South Pacific. Call the Schwartz for tickets ($12-25). http://www.schwartzcenter.com/

North of the canal is the New Castle Garden Festivus on Saturday. a community-wide celebration of gardens and green space of New Castle. For $6 you can visit the Amstel House and the Read House, where the Annual Great Pear Cook-off will be held. The cook off is a competition of cooks creating recipes using pears from the Read House. http://www.dehistory.org/

Enjoy the 80s this weekend and the activity. And by 80s, i mean temperature, not the decade.
