Tour the Cotswold Art & Antique Dealers' Association Tenth Annual Exhibitions.

A 'bakers dozen' makes a tasty treat for this year's special series of selling exhibitions hosted by members of CADA. Thirteen dealers across seven Cotswold towns will be showing, from Saturday 6th October through Saturday 20th October 2007, a wide range of themed exhibitions, from contemporary art to golfing antiques, as well as wonderful collector's curios, ceramics, clocks and furniture.

The Cotswolds is home to the greatest concentration of quality specialist art and antiques dealers outside London. CADA, the Cotswold Art & Antique Dealers' Association, represents some 40 of these dealers.

Whether you are a keen collector, investor in fine quality works of art, or simply looking for something unique and original to put an individual stamp on your home interior, there can be no finer way of exploring the beautiful towns, villages and countryside of the Cotswolds than by spending time visiting the dealers of the region.
