The Palm Beach area is famous for its long, breath taking beaches and interesting night life. In the heart of this heaven on Earth there is one lovely town called Boca Raton. It offers fun and leisure, beautiful weather, hotels, restaurants, golf courses and large shopping malls. But, this is also the culture center of this entire area, offering theaters, museums and galleries.

In Museum of Art you will find collections of European painting and sculpture, prints and drawings, Jean and David Colker collection of pre Colombian art, Sculpture Gardens and many more. Once a month, Saturdays, children learn about master artists and have an opportunity to create a painting in the style of their selected artist. Sundays from two to three pm different family workshops take place here as well.

A place called Willow Theater is located in Sugar Sand Park, in the city center. This small theater has only 155 seats, and it makes it even more interesting. Performing arts, music and dance events, special productions designed for the whole family, you name it. You don't want to miss this interesting experience of having so close up view of performing artists.

Their leading chamber orchestra called The Symphonia is the home of professional classical music in South Florida.

Check the event calendar to make your reservation on time.

There are numerous galleries here that really deserve to be explored. Most of these galleries offer free auction evaluation, and if you would like to sell something, this might be the right place. They organize auctions, but the most interesting things there are their lovely collections of fine arts. You will find contemporary paintings, sculptures and drawings, you name it.
