It's Time! Saturday, March 7th Opening Night!


We have arrived!  This is the countdown week to 'Collaborations and Mixed Mediums'.  What started as a vision to highlight Collaborative Artworks has grown into much, much more.  The Center for Creative Education (CCE) helped pave the way for this exhibition as a Charitable Partner and as the host event space.  Expanding the exhibition from solely Collaborative works to incorporate works of other mediums allows the exhibition portion of the event to visually captivate attendees on differing areas of our Local Art Scene.  Ultimately over 30 visual Artists have contributed around 80 Works of Art which will be on exhibit.  Most importantly is that sale proceeds from the exhibition contribute to the CCE;

The Center for Creative Education is a non-profit, arts-based, educational organization that brings learning to life for students by engaging them in hands on, multi-dimensional learning. We use visual, performing and language arts to enhance student’s knowledge of traditional subjects. So painting, music and dance are used to increase mastery of literacy, math and science. We work with more than 12,000 students all over Palm Beach County, mainly in disadvantaged communities.  At our Center in the Northwood Village area of West Palm Beach we provide art classes to children and adults on a sliding scale.

The Opening Reception is primed to be an entertaining and visually fulfilling evening with Live Music, Live Art, Food, Drinks and Surprises.  All of this is only possible because of our generous Sponsors that have valued the vision, effort and cause.  Not only is this event raising awareness and funding for the CCE but the majority of sponsorship and offerings during the opening reception will be highlighted Northwood Village merchants and supporters.  Northwood Village has quickly become an Art hub not to be overlooked.  Northwood Village is home to Vintage wares, Antiques, Boutiques, Galleries, Coffee, Salons, and trending local Restaurants.  It's the Small Business collaboration on a daily basis that is helping Northwood Village become one of West Palm Beach's prime destination spots for locals and visitors alike.

Time to make your plans to attend, gather friends and family to help show respect for the values of Local Art, Small Business and Charity working in collaboration to bring you 'Collaborations and Mixed Mediums' a Charitable Fine Art Exhibition.
