The Women\u2019s Board of Wolfson Children\u2019s Hospital has announced that the First Coast Design Show, the signature event benefiting Wolfson Children\u2019s Hospital, is Dec. 4-6 at the Prime Osborn Convention Center.<\/p>\n
Presented by Thibaut, the 2026 event, \u201cThe Golden Jubilee: The Art of Celebration,\u201d commemorates 50 years of strategic fundraising for Wolfson Children\u2019s Hospital, making a lasting difference in children\u2019s lives across Florida\u2019s First Coast and throughout the Southeast. The 2026 First Coast Design Show chairs are Meridith Allen and Patton Weber.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year\u2019s First Coast Design Show is a celebration of five decades of generosity, creativity and community, bringing together nationally recognized designers and exceptional art and antique dealers for an incredible weekend of shopping, beauty and artistry,\u201d said Chris Hieb, president of The Women’s Board of Wolfson Children\u2019s Hospital. \u201cMost importantly, the show supports our commitment to raise $1.5 million to create a new outdoor play area for children receiving care at Wolfson Children\u2019s Hospital. The innovative space will extend behavioral health therapy and healing outdoors, providing opportunities for movement, connection and healing in an environment designed to support children\u2019s emotional well-being and recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n
