West Palm Beach’s LOVE OF THE ARTS

West Palm Beach’s famous “City Place” is considered the “heart of downtown” by many locals. It’s festively and sparklingly arranged evening lighting creates a stunningly beautiful atmosphere. Shoppers stroll amongst shimmering and dancing fountains, outdoor cafes and avail themselves of the numerous charming boutiques and art galleries. West Palm Beach’s passion for the arts is further evidenced by the always active weekly events calendar in town and its theaters, performance venues, museums and research libraries. World class performances and shows can be attended at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts next door to “City Place” and Clematis Street, West Palm Beach’s “Nightlife Hub” with its bustling cafes and clubs, is a free trolley ride away.

Florida’s largest waterfront art and music festival, SunFest brings in an unbelievable roster of performers and musicians and draws 165,000-plus festival goers yearly. In addition, several other major art festivals, outdoor concerts and jazz festivals all call West Palm Beach home, making the city the heart of southern Florida’s arts scene. Whether parking your boat at the well-appointed municipal floating docks for a day of fun with the family, or taking in the tranquil ambiance as you meander along Flagler’s waterfront walking path with that someone special, West Palm Beach offers the entertainment and recreational offerings of a much larger metropolitan area still immersed in the extraordinary tropical beauty of the area.
