The Society of the Four Arts is a nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1936 to meet the cultural needs of the growing resort community. The Four Arts campus is home to beautiful sculpture and botanical gardens, a library and children's library, all which are open to the public year-round. During the winter season, The Four Arts also presents notable speakers, concerts, films, educational programs, and art exhibitions to the public.

There are magical gardens, sculptures & a walking tour behind the library. We walked to the right, picked up a walking tour and wandered into the gardens. This non-profits mission is to promote art, literature, music and drama offering a calendar full of diverse concerts, films, exhibits, speakers, workshops & classes. I've tried to join and am on the waiting list. The Gioconda & Joseph King Library is a grand Mediterranean building with a mural depicting art, literature, music & drama painter by Albert Herter in 1939. The two bronze panthers guard the entrance to the library. The Botanical Garden is lush and tropical with lots of benches, sculptures, water features & plants to admire. The Moonlight, Chinese, Jungle, Palm & Madonna Gardens were impressive; a perfect location for a wedding or outdoor event. We walked through beautiful pergolas, past the two Peacock Monuments on our way into the Pannill Pavillion filled with fountains, lush foliage and the four seasons sculptures by Philip Haas. He painted four large fiberglass head sculptures to represent each season, inspired by Mannerist Giuseppe Arcimboldo. I sat on a bench between life size sculptures of Roosevelt & Churchill in Lawrence Holofcener's The Allies in bronze & wood.
2. Norton Museum of Art

The Norton Museum of Art was founded in 1941 by Ralph Hubbard Norton (1875-1953) and his wife Elizabeth Calhoun Norton (1881-1947). The Museum’s permanent collection now consists of more than 7,600 works in five curatorial departments: European, American, Chinese, Contemporary and Photography. The Museum’s expansion that opened February 9, 2019 was designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Lord Norman Foster of the architectural firm Foster + Partners. It is the most comprehensive in the institution’s 78-year history. Dramatic changes include boldly re-orienting the main entrance to South Dixie Highway , which restores the symmetrical east-west campus axis created in 1941 by original architect Marion Sims Wyeth. The building and accompanying lush sculpture garden, enable the Norton to exhibit more art, present more programs, and provide a growing community an up-to-date center for the public to enjoy art and culture.

The Norton Art Museum has been closed,due to the Covid 19 Pandemic.Now,the Norton Art Museum is open again.The Norton Art Museum is diligently following health protocols in these difficult times(wearing of face masks,social distancing,frequent cleaning of restrooms).The other day,I enjoyed its fine sampling of Old Master European paintings.I saw delightful paintings by Jacopo Da Firenze(Gothic Italian),Goswin Vander Weyden(Netherlandish Renaissance),Lucas Cranach the Elder(German Renaissance,"Betrayal of Christ"),Marcantonio Franchesini,Nicolas Largilliere,Peter Paul Rubens(Flemish Baroque),Jacob Biltius(Dutch Master),Dirk Van Delen(Dutch Master,"Church Interior,Christ and Woman Taken in Adultery"),Jan Thomas Yperan (Flemish Baroque,"Perseus and Andromeda"),Anton Van Dyck(Flemish Baroque),Giovanni Paolo Pannini,and Thomas Gainesborough,among others. I saw splendid paintings and works of Art by these 19th and 20th Century European Masters;Eugene Fromentin(quality Oriental theme painting),Claude Monet(French Impressionism,"Bordighera"),Camille Pissarro(the paragon of fine Pointillism),Henri Matisse,Pablo Picasso,Jean Metzinger("Landscape with Sailboats"),Raoul Dufy(French Fauve,"Saint Adresse Beach"),Maurice Utrillo(Post Impressionism,"Rue Du Montmartre"),Max Beckmann(German Expressionism),and Constantin Brancusi(fine 20th Century Sculpture),among others. I relished impressive paintings by these American Painters;Henry Ossawa Tanner,Edmond Tarbell(American Impressionism),C'hilde Hassam(American Impressionism),John Sloan,Robert Henri("Orientale),Marguerite Zorach("Bathers"),Maurice Prendergast("Ramparts,Saint Malo"),John R.Cox(American Regionalism,"Wheatfields"),Rockwell Kent("Holsteinberg,Greenland"),and William Burden("Ridin High"),among others. I also liked its fine Contemporary Art Works that were on display by George Cohen("Loggia"),Jeff Koons,Mickalene Thomas("Naomi Looking Forward"),Nicholas Cave,and Oliver Herring("Cheryl",a very unique creation),among others. It was a privilege being back at the Norton Art Museum and hopefully,things will become normal again in West Palm Beach.

The Boca Raton Museum of Art celebrates, presents, interprets, collects, preserves, encourages, and inspires creativity.
Reviewed By MarkWBoca - Boca Raton, United States
As members of the museum, we were invited to special early hours for members-only viewing. What a delight! The Boca Raton Museum of Art is always outstanding, with wonderful traveling exhibits to supplement their collection. But those members-only visits were like an oasis in this coronavirus desert.
