Notes from the Editor:
Do you remember my annual scheduling alert posted a few weeks ago: No ticket-buying dillydallying if you see an event you really don't want to miss? This notice (right) came in a couple of days ago. And from Joan Ortega-Cowan, Vero Beach Opera: "...we had a FULL HOUSE for Don Giovanni!" Pineapple Playhouse reports one performance of Play On! sold out two weeks in advance. Just sayin'. Take heed.
This Arts Blast offers news of plenty of things to do but there are far more that we can't fit in. Make the Arts Blast calendar at willimiller.com a frequent stop.

From the museum:
"We're passionate about offering in-depth information on local shelling and identification. We also provide an exquisite variety of mollusks and exotic shells from around the world—many of which you most likely never knew existed!
"We offer several temporary exhibits and more than 30 permanent exhibits, including the Great Hall of Shells which displays highlights of the Museum’s collection of some 550,000 shells. The Beyond Shells living gallery of aquariums displays over 60 species of marine life."

From A.E. Backus Museum & Gallery:
The next presentation of the 2023-24 season continues the A.E. Backus Museum & Gallery’s annual series of special exhibitions celebrating the unique art movement that traces its beginnings to our community. Fast Forward: The Original Florida Highwaymen on the Way to Fame marks the 50th anniversary of the painters’ induction into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame. Fast Forward is on view through March 3 at 500 N. Indian River Drive in Historic Downtown Fort Pierce.
When a nineteen-year-old Harold Newton became inspired to paint the Florida landscape in 1954, his vision, courage, and accomplishments encouraged his friends and neighbors to take up paintbrushes and follow a new path as professional artists. Over time, dozens of individuals joined the fast painting venture that elevated the natural beauty of the Sunshine State and unintentionally founded a movement.
Yet their progress over the decades was no secret. Their achievements were recorded in contemporary newspapers, documenting their work for local and regional audiences.
After more than fifty years in becoming an overnight success, the 26 landscape artists now known as The Original Highwaymen were inducted in 2004 into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame.
| |
|
*Fast Forward presents an exhibition of more than 50 rarely or never-before-seen paintings assembled from 10 private collections from around the state, including works by Harold Newton (1934-1994), Alfred Hair (1941-1970), Livingston Roberts (1942-2004), R.A. “Roy” McLendon (b.1932), Sam Newton (b. 1948), Mary Ann Carroll (1940-2019), Willie Daniels (1950-2021), and more.
The exhibition includes notable newspaper appearances from the past, all celebrating the artists’ first 50 years of fame and charting their bold course forward to the hard-won triumph of statewide recognition – exemplified by the original Florida Artists Hall of Fame award “La Florida,” conferred to the group in Tallahassee in 2004 and presented for public display in Fast Forward for the first time in 20 years.
** The A.E. Backus Museum & Gallery again hosts the highly anticipated “Sunday in Key West” Luncheon & Auction event, Sunday, January 28, 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the Pelican Yacht Club, 1120 Seaway Drive, Fort Pierce. This annual and thrilling event brings the excitement and fun of a Winter’s Escape to the warm Key West Islands to the scenic shores of the Indian River Lagoon. This year Live Music will welcome guests to an afternoon of merriment with delicious island fare, chances to win Backus-themed treasures, tantalizing silent auction, capped with an exhilarating live auction all in support of the Backus Museum.
Reserved seats are $100 per person, but space is limited, so act now! Please call (772) 465-0630 or visit BackusMuseum.org to reserve seats before January 22.

A.C.T. Studio Theatre
20th Century Blues
by Susan Miller
January 12 – 28
Sharply funny and evocative play that questions women’s place in the world and with one another. It's a testament to the power of female friendship and the beauty that women gain--not lose--over time. Four women meet once a year for a ritual photo shoot, chronicling their changing (and aging) selves as they navigate love, careers, children, and the complications of history. But when these private photographs threaten to go public, relationships are tested, forcing the women to rise to the challenge and deal with whatever lies ahead.

Pineapple Playhouse
Play On!
by Rick Abbot
January 12 – 28
Play On! is a rollicking comedy that takes you behind-the-scenes of a theater group struggling to put on a play amidst a flurry of hilarious misadventures. As the beleaguered director attempts to wrangle a motley crew of eccentric actors, a confused tech team, and a meddling playwright, chaos predictably ensues. Add to the mix a script that keeps changing until opening night, and you've got a madcap journey through the tumultuous world of amateur theatre. Play On! is an unpretentious, laughter-inducing tribute to the unscripted humor of life in the theater, a fun night at the playhouse.
