Located midway between New York City and Washington, D.C., Wilmington is a lively and welcoming environment for creative artists and students, and plays an important role in our nation's artistic history.
Howard Pyle and his fabled Wilmington studio are legends in American art and illustration, while neighboring Chadds Ford, PA has been home to three generations of Wyeths, one of America's most distinguished artist families. From the historic Quaker Meeting House, the landmark Railroad Station, and the 104-acre Rockford Park, to I. M. Pei's contemporary American International Building, Wilmington is alive with examples of the best in American architecture and public sculpture.
Wilmington's internationally recognized Delaware Art Museum is joined by the Delaware Center for the Contemporary Arts in providing access to historical art treasures as well as the latest work by contemporary artists. The new Bank One Riverfront Art Center brings world-class exhibitions to Wilmington's revitalized waterfront. Music and theatre flourish at Opera Delaware, Delaware Symphony and the Delaware Theatre Company.
