MIDDLETOWN, R.I. — We put on our summer finest last night to attend the gala preview of the fabulous, festive Newport Antiques Show, underway at St. George’s School through Sunday, July 24. Chaired by Anne Hamilton and managed by Diana Bittel with Ralph DiSaia, this show, one of our favorites, pairs exceptional paintings, furniture and ceramics with marine art and artifacts, garden décor, naval history and whimsy. All in all, a fitting tribute to America’s most storied seaside resort. For details, www.newportantiquesshow.com.
