Chesapeake Arts Show

After more than 25 years of hosting one of the most successful outdoor art festivals in Hampton Roads, The Stockley Gardens Arts Festivals, we decided to host a similar festival in Chesapeake. After all, we don’t just support people with disabilities in Norfolk. And we want to give back to all the communities that make our work possible.

Every year, the Chesapeake Arts Show comes to life on the fourth weekend in April. Held in partnership with Portlock Galleries and the Chesapeake Fine Arts Commission, this is a juried fine arts and crafts festival. Because the Chesapeake Arts Show is still in its infancy, it’s a smaller, more intimate show than the Stockley Gardens Arts Festivals.

Hosted on the grounds of Portlock Galleries in the South Norfolk section of Chesapeake, The Chesapeake Arts Show features the work of artists and artisans working in media that include painting, photography, pottery, wood, metal, and more. Throughout the weekend, there will be live music, festival foods, entertainment and kids’ activities, as well as demonstrations from local artisans.

Awards Ceremony



Award winners will be announced Saturday evening during the Awards Ceremony. The ceremony will take place at the Main Stage, held from 5 pm to 7 pm. Held in Lakeside Park, the After Hours Party is open to the public and provides a great chance to mingle with both patrons and artists. Vendors will be open and refreshments will be available for sale.

All proceeds of the Chesapeake Arts Show benefit Hope House Foundation.
