THINGS TO DO
Art After Dark invites residents to a Community Party on Thursday, July 12, to celebrate entering the home stretch of the Norton’s transformative expansion project. This is the last Art After Dark until Feb. 15, 2019, as the museum, at 1451 S. Olive Ave., is closing to finish interior construction and re-install art. Art After Dark runs from 5 to 9 p.m. Admission is free.
The evening also includes art tours, art-making activities, and artist Jen Clay presenting her stop-motion animation and video projections, accompanied by costumed members of the Norton Teen Advisory Squad in playful, choreographed movements. JM & the Sweets close out the night performing what they call South Florida Soul music.
