THE ADA AWARD OF MERIT DINNER HONORING PETER TILLOU
SATURDAY, APRIL 13, 2013 8:00pm
In conjunction with The Philadelphia Antiques Show
Location: The Pennsylvania Convention Center
1101 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107
On Saturday, April 13, at 8 pm, the Antiques Dealers' Association of America, Inc, will honor Peter Tillou as the recipient of the 2013 ADA Award of Merit in recognition of his extensive contributions to the fields of fine art, American decorative arts and antiques.
Peter has been a collector and dealer of note for more than 60 years. His collections have been featured in numerous exhibitions and publications, and he has traveled the world in his effort to satisfy a thirst for the discovery of inspiring art and antiques. Peter brings to the field an enthusiasm and passion for knowledge, and he is renowned for his willingness to share that knowledge with others. He stands alone as an original character — one of the old-school dealers who scoured the countryside seeking treasures great and small and who appreciated objects both humble and distinguished equally.
The evening will include a buffet dinner followed by remarks from guest speakers.
The Antiques Dealers’ Association of America , Inc. (ADA) was established in May 1984 as a non-profit trade association. Its major objective is to make more professional the business of buying and selling antiques.
