![]() (PRESS RELEASE)_December 22, 2023 (WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.) – The Armory Art Center is pleased to announce that its latest exhibition, “Art Deco en Plein Air” will honor the vibrant, unique history of Art Deco buildings and places in The Palm Beaches. The exhibit is free and open to the public now through January 11, 2024. Presented in partnership with Plein Air Palm Beach, the exhibition will showcase notable, historic Art Deco buildings including the Armory Art Center, the Cultural Council for Palm Beach County, the Delray Beach Pharmacy, and much more. “We can’t wait for our community to see this fantastic exhibition,” said Lianna Slater, Armory Art Center exhibition and events coordinator. “Palm Beach County’s history and rich architectural heritage is showcased beautifully by 40 accomplished artists. More than 40 different areas around the country are represented across various mediums.”
The exhibition comes at an exciting time in the Armory Art Center’s rich history. Earlier this year, the organization announced that it had begun restoring its historic Old Armory building. The restoration includes a new roof, windows, and doors, followed by interior renovations to offices, jewelry and metalworking studios, galleries, and a new Armory Art Center Shop—none of which will impact classes or major events. “Art Deco en Plein Air” will be located in the East Gallery at the Armory Art Center’s historic campus. The public is invited to enjoy a complimentary closing reception for the show on Wednesday, January 10, 2024, from 5-7 p.m. A special lecture with the Art Deco Society of the Palm Beaches will also take place that evening from 7:30-8:30 pm.
