All Members | Day Tripping in West Palm Beach

  • West Palm Beach, FL USA (map)

Let’s ride to West Palm, see the Dawn of the New Age at The Norton, make art inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe, and explore The Bunker private collection. Space is very limited, so reserve your spot today here.

When brainstorming an experience that speaks to our inner artist and learner, Derek Sober of Armory Art Center suggested that we focus on three words: see, think, and wonder. In this spirit, we’ve organized a day led by curators, educators, and artists in a city that’s only an hour or so from Miami, but feels like a world away.

Let’s day trip:

10:30 AM | Start the day at The Norton Museum of Art with curated tours of their two new exhibitions, At the Dawn of a New Age: Early Twentieth-Century American Modernism and From Man Ray to O'Keeffe.

11:30 AM | Lunch at The Norton

1:15 PM | Put pencil to paper with a dedicated figure drawing workshop with artist John Lark, inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe at the Armory Art Center–a West Palm gem housed in a 1939 art deco building that’s on a mission to inspire the creation and appreciation of art.

3 PM | We’re off to The Bunker Artspace, home of Beth Rudin DeWoody’s astonishing private collection. Showcasing a wide range of contemporary art, DeWoody’s passion, vision, and continuing support of emerging and well-known artists and galleries has redefined the boundaries of collecting.
