SUMMARY:Sag Harbor Whaling Museum- “The Art of Whaling”
DESCRIPTION: \n \nSag Harbor Whaling Museum Opens its 2022 season with “The Art of Whaling” \nThe Sag Harbor Whaling and Historical Museum is delighted to open our 2022 season on SUNDAY MAY 1st with “The Art Of Whaling\,” a collection of whaling paintings\, prints and drawings from the early 1800s to modern day. \nOn display will be art from various European and American artists and printers\, including a number of historically significant works such as two prints by Frenchman Ambrose Louis Garneray that author Herman Melville called “By far the finest…presentations of whales and whaling scenes anywhere to be found…” There are also several related to Sag Harbor and Long Island whaling history. \nFor the marine artist – indeed\, all artists – whaling offers some of the most dramatic themes and compositions available. The first sighting of a whale\, the launching of boats\, and of course the encounter with the whale itself: A handful of men in a fragile wooden boat struggling to catch an animal that could be some 60 feet long and weigh up to 60 tons. In doing their jobs\, whalemen were putting their very lives on the line. Artists have been capturing these scenes almost since whaling began. \nCome see how artists have explored\, interpreted and portrayed one of the world’s most dangerous professions – and one of the most noble and beautiful animals on earth.

Our programs support educational growth\, skill-building and healthy lifestyles which create a positive and lasting impact on a child.\nFounded in 1969 as the Community Child Care Center of Delray Beach (our corporate name)\, the Achievement Centers for Children & Families began as a pilot program in response to the overwhelming need for affordable\, quality childcare available to low-income working mothers. \nAs a small nonprofit organization\, our mission began in donated church schoolrooms with a handful of teachers and children. As the low-income community needs became increasingly evident\, our program quickly grew to support these families and help prepare their children for success in the public school system. The Achievement Centers’ program was so successful that a few years later we relocated to a small house. In 1990\, a new preschool facility opened\, on land donated by the city of Delray Beach\, serving children 3 to 5 years. Less than six years later\, we built a toddler center to serve children between the ages of 12 months to 3 years. In 2001\, we opened our 19\,000 square foot after school center to serve students in kindergarten through 5th grade. \nOur programs were expanded again in 2004 with the addition of an afterschool program\, teen program\, adult education program and adult center at the Village Academy. In January 2007 we officially changed our name from the Community Child Care Center to the Achievement Centers for Children & Families to aptly describe our dedication of providing services to working low-income families in Palm Beach County.

SUMMARY:Kid Sanctuary Campus 1000 wishes
DESCRIPTION:Changing Lives- KidSanctaury Campus Stories of Impact \nTo date\, KidSanctuary Campus has served over 87 children\, with average length of stay being 6 months to a year. Studies show that it is so important to keep siblings together and currently we have four sibling groups residing on campus. We are proud that all four of our high school students have been accepted into college and that one of them saved enough money to buy her own car while graduating with a 4.0 GPA. While one teenager learned to drive on campus another learned to ride a bike for the first time. Each of the children are different but they all leave with a sense of purpose and the new Enrichment center will ensure that they have the tools they need to have a brighter tomorrow.

SUMMARY:Armory Arts Center Winter Gala
DESCRIPTION:The story of the Armory Art Center mirrors America’s progression of history from the early twentieth century into the twenty-first.  As the United States moved away from being primarily a rural/agrarian country\, struggled to find a way out of the Great Depression\, fought through World War II\, dealt with post-war damage and reconstruction\, developed new ideas to reinvent itself\, and emerged as an economically and artistically vibrant urban society\, so the Armory progressed\, every step of the way. \nFROM THE FARMLAND.  At the turn of the twentieth century\, growers farming the rich soil around Lake Okeechobee sent fruit and vegetables on barges down a winding canal along what is now State Road 80/Southern Boulevard\, floating past what is now Palm Beach International Airport\, and cruising northward along what is now Parker Avenue to stop at a fruit and vegetable stand called the Municipal Market where the produce was sold to the people of the Palm Beaches. A short distance past the stand there was a basin wide enough for the barges to turn around to make the return trip back to The Glades. The basin is still there\, located on the south side of Okeechobee Boulevard\, across the street from the Kravis Center and next to the Howard Park Tennis Courts—however\, now the barge turnaround basin is a decorative pond with fountains shooting up in the middle. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE GREAT DEPRESSION.  The vegetable stand’s initial structure was converted into the Palm Beach County Armory\, 1939\, WPA Project Sponsored by Palm Beach County and the City of West Palm Beach for Company C\, 124th Infantry… W.M King\, Architect as told by the words carved into a large granite commemorative plaque and by some old photos of the fruit and vegetable stand while it was under renovation. \n\n\n\n\nAlthough the Municipal Market was partially dismantled\, in the reconfiguration a portion of the old structure remained. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Works Progress Administration (WPA) was the largest of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal agencies to jump-start the American economy out of the Depression\, employing millions of unemployed people to carry out public works projects such as the construction of public roads and buildings… \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n…including a number of armories! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe iconic Art Deco Stars on the façade go back to the summer of 1939! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy September 1939 the façade’s familiar ARMORY lettering had appeared. \nIn 2010 the granite plaque from that 1939 WPA commemoration was found partially buried on the Armory campus. It was restored and mounted inside the front door of the Armory’s main gallery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWORLD WAR II.  Before\, during\, and after World War II\, the Armory served as a training center for soldiers and National Guardsmen.  The main building still houses a vault where the guns were stored. The arched ceiling has the look of an old airplane hangar.  The building behind it was the motor pool for repair and maintenance of jeeps and other military vehicles.  A famous photograph in the Administration office shows about fifty soldiers standing at attention in front of the Armory building with the iconic Art Deco stars prominent on the support arms of the front door canopy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAFTER THE WAR.  During the 1950’s and 60’s\, as related from memories of many of local high school graduates\, the National Guard Armory also served as a hot-spot for proms\, parties\, and dances.  A local musician who recently played at an Armory art exhibition recalled in 1960 bringing Chubby Checker up from Miami Airport to play at an Armory dance/concert and demonstrate his new dance sensation\, The Twist. \nBy 1981 when the Armory had fallen into disrepair and it was no longer needed as a military facility\, it was closed and left abandoned.  In 1985 the Norton Art Museum closed down its art school\, leaving a group of art teachers without a place to create.  When the old National Guard building was considered as a new location for an art school\, attorney/art lover/philanthropist Robert Montgomery and his wife Mary provided $100\,000 to renovate the National Guard building and the Palm Beach County Cultural Council and many others also contributed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNotice the Armory Art School sign under the awning on what is now the front entrance with an arrow directing people to go around to the back! \nAs a long-term lease was being negotiated with the City of West Palm Beach\, Muriel Kaplan\, teachers\, students\, and donors were seen with other volunteers sweeping out the cob webs\, chasing out the pigeons that roosted in the rafters of what is now Montgomery Hall\, and generally cleaning up the building to make way for teachers\, students\, and art exhibitions. \nAN ART SCHOOL.  On November 21\, 1986\, the Armory Art Center\, Inc.\, was incorporated as a Florida not-for-profit corporation.  The Armory commenced operations on July 1\, 1987\, as a community arts organization providing the combination of art education classes and art exhibitions.  From 1987 to 1988 there was major renovation of the main building\, naming it The Robert and Mary Montgomery Historic Armory Building.  Over the years Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery continued with large donations.  The organization was originally called The Robert and Mary Montgomery Armory Art Center\, however\, eventually the Montgomery’s asked that their name be removed from the organization as a whole to encourage other donors.  Their name remains on the building and in the main exhibition hall\, Montgomery Hall\, dedicated on April 11\, 1992.  On June 11\, 1992\, the building was certified on the National Register of Historic Places as the Old West Palm Beach National Guard Armory. \nGrowth and renovation on the campus continued.  With a significant contribution from Jerold Kaplan in 1999\, the Armory began a major makeover of the National Guard’s motor pool garage building which later served as a repair facility for the City of West Palm Beach fire trucks\, converting it into a ceramics/sculpture complex named the Muriel S. Kaplan Building after Mr. Kaplan’s mother who was an original Armory faculty member\, and dedicating the completion on March 16\, 2000.  In 2001\, the Armory built a wholly-owned third building called the Young Artist Studio Facility\, a two-story building dedicated to painting\, drawing\, printing\, and fiber arts.  Being true to the instincts and needs of great painters\, it was especially designed to feature natural light from the north.  The Ansin Kiln Complex\, a further development of the ceramics and sculpture building\, was dedicated on February 27\, 2003. \nAlthough you won’t see a famous person at the Armory every day\, celebrity visitors appear from time to time.  Then First Lady Hillary Clinton gave a speech in Montgomery Hall\, opera star Luciano Pavarotti presented an exhibition of his paintings\, movie stars Burt Reynolds and Lonnie Anderson organized a fund raising sock hop\, Broadway star Carol Channing of Hello\, Dolly!signed up for an art class\, and Leonard Nimoy who played Dr. Spock on Star Trek held an exhibition of his photography.  Rock star visitors include Allman Brothers Band drummer Butch Trucks and Def Jam rocker Russell Simmons. \nWith both beginner classes and ever changing innovative intermediate and advanced art classes and with art exhibitions ranging from works of student and faculty shows to emerging and cutting-edge artists on the threshold of fame\, every year seems to bring something new!  Most recently in December 2016\, the Armory established the initial and highly successful two-day West Palm Beach Arts Festival attended by thousands with artists from around the country. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nINTO THE FUTURE…  Like most histories\, the story of the Armory Art Center comes from a few written documents\, some old photographs\, some eyewitness accounts\, and a lot of often-repeated\, unwritten stories.   Some of these stories\, perhaps told during art classes and exhibitions\, may have become more romantic than accurate over time\, so if you have more information to contribute to the picture\, please let us know! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeld in twelve state-of-the-art studios\, nearly 100 courses are offered including ceramics\, digital arts\, drawing\, jewelry\, painting\, printmaking\, fibers\, sculpture\, and a variety of exhibitions are hosted annually in four galleries. Providing art classes for students of all ages\, exhibitions\, art salons\, lectures\, and special events\, The Armory Art Center continues to make history every day through nurturing ongoing artistic expression that shapes\, defines\, and reflects all of our lives. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Armory Art Center has celebrated over 30 years in the West Palm Beach community and anticipates many more inspiring years ahead!

SUMMARY:Hope on the Horizon- Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation
DESCRIPTION:The Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) has been leading the way in Alzheimer’s research since its founding in 1998. Thanks to the generosity of our founders\, Leonard A. Lauder and Ronald S. Lauder\, 100% of every dollar donated to us goes directly to science. The ADDF has awarded more than $209 million to fund over 690 Alzheimer’s drug discovery programs\, biomarker programs and clinical trials in 19 countries.\nWe make investments\, not grants\, in research. Employing a venture philanthropy model\, the ADDF is helping to shape the Alzheimer’s research pipeline through both scientific leadership and providing venture capital for innovative\, often underfunded research areas. Our unique model generates investment returns that are channeled right back into our science. Our bold strategy includes investments in a diverse range of novel treatments and diagnostics that are altering the course of Alzheimer’s research. \nThe ADDF supports one of the largest and most diverse clinical development portfolios for Alzheimer’s disease\, with over 30 active clinical trials that span multiple drug targets. Our early focus on the biology of aging\, an out-the-box idea at a time when all eyes were on targeting amyloid plaques in the brain\, is now a guiding research principle. This is not just reflected in our clinical trial portfolio\, but across the entire robust Alzheimer’s pipeline where most clinical trials are focused on drug targets other than amyloid\, aimed at neuroinflammation\, vascular problems\, synapse loss\, and other aging malfunctions. \nThe ADDF continues to serve as a significant driver of meaningful innovation and change in drug discovery and development. Many initiatives with the ADDF’s footprint are paying off in breakthrough firsts. \n\nEarly funding for development of the Amyvid™ PET scan\, the first diagnostic test for Alzheimer’s disease. Amyvid™ was instrumental in the approval of the first disease-modifying Alzheimer’s drug\, Aduhelm\, in 2021\, providing the biomarker data needed under the FDA’s accelerated approval guidelines.\nThe ADDF also invested early and often in PrecivityAD™\, the first commercially available blood test to help physicians with early detection and diagnosis of Alzheimer’s.\nThrough the Diagnostics Accelerator\, the ADDF provided funding to Altoida\, Inc.\, a leading precision neurology company\, which was awarded U.S. Food and Drug Administration Breakthrough Device Designation for the Neuro Motor Index\, a predictive system for early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.\n\nMany of the concepts we supported in early-stage research have advanced to phase 2 clinical trials\, moving us closer to a cure. More than 75% of ADDF-funded trials are in phase 2 and\, true to our mission\, they are focused on diverse drug targets. \nOur support is also designed to help investigators and early biotech firms move important research through the expensive and challenging research process. After receiving ADDF support\, our researchers have gone on to receive commitments of over $3 billion in follow-on funding from the government\, pharmaceutical companies\, and venture capital firms. This is a testament to our rigorous review process and to the resources we provide to researchers. \nToday\, the ADDF is well positioned to continue its leadership role in driving exciting scientific discoveries. Each year brings us closer to achieving our mission to conquer Alzheimer’s disease.

SUMMARY:Kravis Center Gala
DESCRIPTION:A major performing arts facility had long been a dream of Palm Beach County residents. Efforts to build an arts center began here in the early 1950s. The first step in this direction came with the arrival of the Palm Beach Playhouse\, later the Royal Poinciana Playhouse. In 1968\, a local arts pioneer\, Mary Howes\, along with a group of other residents\, formed Fine Arts Festival\, Incorporated. They sponsored six benefits to raise funds to build an arts center that would accommodate major opera\, orchestra\, ballet\, and theatrical productions. They got as far as commissioning the late architect John Volk to draft a model. A feasibility study was conducted\, and land was optioned next to the current site of the West Palm Beach Auditorium. But it became apparent that the community was not yet ready to support such a major undertaking.
