Grove Park

The Rehoboth Art League and the City of Rehoboth Beach have partnered again to present the City’s arts festival, in the downtown's picturesque Grove Park, where artists will showcase and sell their work. Known for its annual events that draw discerning local collectors as well as those vacationing from the Baltimore/Washington, DC, area as well as Philadelphia and New York City, the Rehoboth Art League is proud to present this event now in its 5th year as another way to bring creative minds to coastal Delaware.

Works by Martha Spak

Opening Reception: Friday, May 9, 2025 (5pm-7pm)

Corkran Gallery

This body of work explores landscape as an internal, shifting space shaped by memory, perception, and emotional terrain. Through abstraction, I aim to evoke the feeling of place rather than depict it—suggesting distance, erosion, movement, and stillness without relying on literal form.

Martha is an artist and creative entrepreneur based in Washington, DC. She is best known for creating ethereal landscape paintings and serene abstracts. Each collection she creates is inspired by her travels and experiences

Assemblage by Tim Barton

Opening Reception: Friday, May 9, 2025 (5pm-7pm)

Ventures Gallery

I am compelled. I can’t stop whatever this creative force is within me. I am constantly amazed about the amount of objects we humans have created over time, just untold millions and millions of objects, and some of them have found new purpose within my art work. I am fixated with finding the new perfect artifact or object to use within my art and spend many happy hours treasure hunting.

The Rehoboth Art League's signature summer event, the Outdoor Show, returns to our historic Henlopen Acres campus in 2025 to celebrate its 52nd year. More than 100 artists and artisans from around the country will display and sell their fine art and fine crafts amidst the Rehoboth Art League's 3.5+ acre wooded campus, just blocks from the busy downtown Rehoboth Avenue in coastal Delaware. The annual Outdoor Show is a juried event yielding exceptional work, and many of the artists actively enjoy demonstrating their creativity during each day of the show.

This exhibit showcases alternate firings. Examples of pit fired, naked raku, horsehair and saggar fired works will be on display. The beauty of alternate firings is the uniqueness of the finished pieces. Shapes can be duplicated but the firing techniques create one of a kind works of art.

Sketch Group Paintings by Howard Schroeder

Opening Reception: Friday, May 9, 2025 (5pm-7pm)

Homestead

In 1949, Howard Schroeder started the Open Studio Sketch Group, today known as the Howard Schroeder Sketch Group, to give artists an opportunity to gather once a week to sketch or paint live models, an idea inspired by a group he had belonged to as an artist in New York City, his birthplace. Selected works for this exhibition depict these weekly sessions. Schroeder created thousands of sketches and paintings, many of which are now part of Rehoboth Art League’s Collections. The sketch group remains active today and is open to interested artists by reservation.

My current body of work explores the expression, beauty, and challenges of women, both in today’s world and in our history. This work is a mixed media collection that utilizes wood panels, heavy watercolor paper, rice paper, smudgy charcoal, pastel pencils, house paint, liquid watercolor and cut paper. Don’t hold me to just those, as the collection of tools and mediums grows with each day.
