The Winter Show has unveiled the exhibitor lineup for its 72nd edition, returning to the historic Park Avenue Armory January 23 through February 1, 2026. The Fair will open with its celebrated Opening Night Preview benefit for East Side House on January 22nd. This year’s edition brings together more than 70 leading international dealers, presenting museum-quality works spanning fine and decorative arts, antiques, jewelry, and design. Alongside the exhibitions, The Winter Show will present a dynamic program of special events and collaborations with world-renowned institutions, cultural organizations, and influential voices in art and design.

More from the organizers:

Established in 1954 by East Side House Settlement, The Winter Show is a landmark New York event that has raised vital funds for the visionary community-based organization for over 70 years. Proceeds from ticket sales and benefit events—including the Opening Night Preview on January 22nd and Young Collectors Night on January 29th—directly support East Side House’s educational, workforce, and supportive programs that serve the Bronx and Northern Manhattan.

“Since the inception of The Winter Show, East Side House has worked hand in hand to uplift thousands of New Yorkers,” said Daniel Diaz, Executive Director of East Side House Settlement. “In 2026, we will continue to build on the momentum of opening the Bronx’s first innovative healthcare-focused CTE charter high school, while advancing transformative capital projects that will shape the borough’s future. These initiatives are not just infrastructure; they are investments in opportunity. With The Winter Show’s support, we are laying stronger foundations for generations to come.”
