Boynton Beach Arts & Cultural Center 125 East Ocean Ave Boynton Beach FL 33435

Free Admission & Free Parking.

 

Florida’s historic landscape artists known as The Florida Highwaymen will be coming to Boynton Beach on Saturday, January 11th from 11-3 p.m.

This event is sponsored by the Boynton Beach Historical Society and the City of Boynton Beach. The popular Highwaymen artists will be in the Boynton Arts and Cultural Center on Ocean Avenue.

Visitors will enjoy hearing their fascinating history and will have the opportunity to interact with the artists. The artists scheduled to attend: Doretha Hair Truesdell and Roderick Hair, Kandi Ingram (daughter of Mary Ann Carroll), Robert L Lewis, Al Black, Curtis Arnett, and Gertrude Walker (wife of Charles Walker).

The Boynton Beach Arts & Cultural Center is a fitting showcase for these artists and
for this Art Show. The Historical Society has been vocal in the fight to save the 1926
Boynton High building from destruction. The City of Boynton Beach rose to the challenge
and turned the structure into a cultural arts hub and gem in Boynton Beach.
