FAITH HILL TO KEYNOTE 2019 ANTIQUES AND GARDEN SHOW OF NASHVILLE

Tickets now available for one of nation’s largest antique and horticultural events 

 

NASHVILLE, Tenn.––GRAMMY®-winning superstar Faith Hill, together with her design team, architect Bobby McAlpine and interior designer Ray Booth, will share their experience of building an island paradise in a panel discussion moderated by MILIEU Design Director Leslie Newsom Rascoe at the 29th annual Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville.

The Show is set for Feb. 1–3, 2019 at the Music City Center in downtown Nashville. A detailed Show schedule and tickets are available at AntiquesandGardenShow.com.

“I’ve attended many of the Antiques and Garden Shows in the past, and I’m excited to be a part of it this year,” Hill said. “Bobby and Ray are extremely talented and so much fun to work with. We are looking forward to sharing what we learned in transforming a 20-acre island into our private paradise getaway.”

McAlpine and Booth are partners of the interior design and architecture firm McALPINE. Known for their timeless work, the firm provides high-end design on projects ranging from residences and restaurants to private chapels and follies in a public park. The team showcases their talents around the country with offices in Nashville, Atlanta, Montgomery and New York.

The Show draws more than 15,000 attendees annually with its world-class collection of antiques from more than 150 dealers, expertly landscaped gardens and opportunities to engage with some of the nation’s leading voices and talents in the design, antique and horticultural spheres.

Chaired by Martha Chapman and Shea Ghertner, the 2019 Show theme will be “A Passion for Home.” In addition to the keynote, other speakers will talk about their passions for entertaining, home and design. The featured speakers and moderators are:

  • Katie Ridder, renowned New York-based interior designer who has been commissioned by clients spanning from Switzerland to Virginia.
  • Peter Pennoyer, founding partner of New York-based Peter Pennoyer Architects, acclaimed author and industry expert.
  • Susanna Salk, host and co-producer of Quintessence’s At Home with video series with accolades as an author of many best-selling design books, including At Home with Dogs and Their Designers: Sharing a Stylish Life.
  • Carolyne Roehm, New York City-based designer, admired tastemaker and best-selling author of 13 books.
  • Garden District, Memphis-based floral boutique comprised of two talented floriculture experts Greg Campbell and Erick New.
  • Elizabeth Heiskell, world-class chef, best-selling author and “TODAY Show” contributor.

“Whether your interests are in horticulture, interior design, architecture, the culinary arts or all of the above, our lineup of 2019 speakers is sure to spark inspiration,” said Chapman. “From insightful lectures to shopping one-of-a-kind collectibles to savoring breathtaking gardens, there’s something for everyone.”

The Show will also celebrate the return of honorary chairman Gil Schafer III of G. P. Schafer Architect, PLLC for the third consecutive year.

“Gil has been such a friend of the Show, having served on our national advisory board for years,” said Ghertner. “Legacy partners like Gil continue to help us build the Show into the go-to design event our attendees enjoy each winter.”

Show proceeds benefit Cheekwood—a historic estate serving as a public botanic garden, woodland sculpture trail and art museum—and more than 20 charities supported by the Economic Club of Nashville (ECON).
