Palm Beach County's Focal Point For Art

 Evoking images of gallery-lined streets not unlike the Village and Soho of New York - Lake Worth is emerging as Palm Beach County's focal point for the area's contemporary artists. The artists and their works, displayed in the Palm Beach Community College Museum of Art, represent a wide range of diverse cultural images.

With its international series of contemporary exhibitions featuring paintings/sculptures, as well as extensive glass and ceramic art, critically acclaimed artists have found a venue to display their works. Because of the location of the Palm Beach Community College Museum of Art in downtown Lake Worth, new galleries will soon be opening and veteran galleries will soon be moving to Lake Worth from other locations.

Lake Worth offers artists a premiere location to reach upscale buyers in an elegant and charming atmosphere. Because of the City's many attributes, Lake Worth has attained a rich and vibrant gallery life in recent years.

Lake Worth may be small, but it is a cosmopolitan city. Now, the Lake Worth Art League is adding to the city's reputation by creating a positive and cohesive environment for artists. Founded in 1941 to "further studies of arts and their development as a part of the cultural life of Lake Worth," the League offers classes taught by qualified professional artists; members exhibits as well as guest artists in the Gallery, located at 416 Lake Avenue; Outdoor Shows on the grounds; monthly membership meetings with demonstrations by well known artists, and lectures on specific topics.

Above the Lake Worth Art League Gallery is the Museum of the City of Lake Worth. Each room in the Museum tells a story about specific people and events at a certain time in history. The Museum is a blend of Lake Worth history and special donations. It is dedicated to the Pioneers of the City, and to those who have made events happen, change take place, and visions become realities.
