I’m not Catholic but this bit from Jerusalem caught my eye; particularly given the season…..Nice to see the Israelis and Palestinians cooperating even if it’s just for 24 December.

The 56th Annual Winter Antiques Show
22-31 January 2010
Park Avenue Armory
67th Street and Park Avenue
New York City, New York

As America’s top vetted show this is the one not to miss if you are looking for beauty and inspiration. Brace yourself for high tickets on these items of beauty (you are correct, beauty does not come cheap) but what a dream to be so inundated by fine and decorative arts from ancient times through 1960’s. There’s a special exhibition: Colonial to Modern: A Century of Collecting at Historic New England.

All this and more for a great cause; The East Side House Settlement
For more than fifty years the Winter Antiques Show has provided crucial financial support for East Side House Settlement, which offers a variety of social services and educational programs to those living in the Mott Haven section of the South Bronx, one of the poorest congressional districts in America.
Recognizing that education is the key to opportunity, East Side House—in partnership with New York City’s Department of Education—founded two new schools in the community: Mott Haven Village Preparatory High School and Bronx Haven High School.
The Winter Antiques Show Education Fund was established to provide college readiness and other programs for these students as they strive toward obtaining a high school diploma and college education. The schools’ initial enrollment of seventy will soon reach seven hundred students, with impressive graduation and college acceptance rates.
