Historic Bellefonte, Delaware has a population of 1193 and a land area of .18 square miles. It’s hard to imagine it as an arts, antiques, and “eclectica” hot spot, but it is. Situated a stone’s throw from the Delaware River between the northern edge of Wilmington, Delaware and the Pennsylvania State line, this incorporated town is getting ready to celebrate 100 years since its 1915 founding.
A visit to Brandywine Boulevard finds Bellefonte Arts at number 803 getting ready for a special exhibit, with new work showing up in time for the Art Loop on the First Friday of each month . One of the two small rooms of the gallery finds displays that can be rolled to the side for art classes. Further information on classes and exhibits is available or check the Facebook page or .blogspot.com/
