Downtown West Palm Beach Summer Series, Featuring Aesop's Tables -- June 1 - August 31
From 6:00-9:00pm on June 1, join me for the opening reception showcasing 25 works of art that will be installed on the Great Lawn in downtown West Palm Beach as part of the City's Summer in Paradise. Twelve professional artists were engaged to paint picnic tables into artistic versions of Aesop's fables. Each table represents a different fable as well as each artist's unique style. The extent and diversity of talent working on this project will amaze you. When you stop by, be sure to visit my dancing grasshopper and pesky (but hard-working) ants crawling all over my table!
Although the opening reception is Thursday, you will be able to enjoy the tables for three months on the Great Lawn in downtown West Palm Beach, FL.

Hi*Jinx At the Bean -- June 7 - July 17
Opening next week is "Hi*Jinx at the Bean," a solo exhibition at Blooming Bean Cafe and Gallery.
Blooming Bean is pleased to announce the opening of a solo exhibition by BaCa Resident Artist, Missy Pierce, from June 1 through July 17, 2017. Pierce will be displaying some experimental paintings from her early series based on playing at work. She says, "When I created these pieces, it was soon after I retired from a stressful career. Once I began to explore this world of creative expression (coupled with the joys of motherhood), feelings of bliss seemed to erupt on every canvas I touched. The piece above is called "Euphoria" and was made through a process of pouring paint, layer by layer, directly onto the canvas. Not only was the process itself enjoyable, it was an exhilarating time for me as I was unleashing my creative spirit after a decade of suppression. I sometimes refer to this joy-filled series as 'Whistle While You Work' because that is pretty much what I was doing."
Blooming Bean Cafe serves only Fair Trade Organic Coffee and is sought after by coffee aficionados for its potent but rapturous Nitro Cold Brew. It is located on 41 NE 1st Street, Pompano Beach, FL. Cafe and Gallery hours are Tuesdays through Thursdays, 7:30am-3:00pm and Friday and Saturday 7:30am until the late night action stops.
A percentage of all proceeds from art sales helps Hepzibah House. By offering recovery, restoration and release from the nightmare of human trafficking, donations to Hepzibah House helps support their residential treatment facility and its education and outreach programs.
