It’s loud with reggae, smells like coconut and it feels like you get a tan when you step inside. It’s a vacation splashed onto a pirate ship. If you haven’t been to Island Company on Worth Avenue, then you haven’t been to Palm Beach.

riting my letter for this magazine for the last time as president of the Worth Avenue Association brings to mind everything I love about this place—and how much we’ve accomplished over the past four years. While most assume our primary mission is to support and promote our Worth Avenue retailers, there is much more we do to support our community as well.

What is closest to my heart is how we, as an association, have redoubled our efforts to give back to the community. Making a difference may start with how we make our customers feel, but it can also be something as simple and profound as leaving our local beaches better than we found them. Our Worth Avenue Association’s “Turtle Tuesday” beach cleanups during turtle nesting season have removed 7,000 pounds of debris since we began keeping records three years ago.

We’ve also given back to local charities. This year’s historic walking tour proceeds will benefit the Palm Beach Zoo. Past “Charities of Choice” have been Forever Family, Loggerhead Marinelife Center and Els for Autism. In addition, we started a toy drive in the past few years with most of our businesses contributing a new unwrapped toy for distribution in our underserved local communities.

These initiatives speak volumes about who we are—and why Worth Avenue is so special. We still set the standard for personal service. We know our customers’ names. We honor the tradition and the aesthetic of Worth Avenue, a destination of warmth, grace and unparalleled quality for more than 100 years.

It has been a genuine privilege to serve as president of this group of wonderful people and to uphold the Worth Avenue experience and its association of merchants. I know our contributions going forward will only be greater as we continue to build that legacy.

How to Create an Oasis London-born Jennifer Garrigues is known for an exuberance and style that melds elegance with comfort. Over the past 30 years, she has had the privilege of working with generations of families, and her client list covers the world, from CEOs in the United States to their counterparts abroad.

Garrigues says the first step toward creating a relaxing environment at home is to clear the clutter and let your home breathe. She says to always start with your bedroom, since it is the place you spend the most time—and the most private space as well. Garrigues recommends focusing on having a comfortable bed and lush linens and leaving the TV outside.

The same simplistic concept applies to the rest of the house—less is more when it comes to building a relaxing environment. Having a comfortable place to sit and read, listen to peaceful music and light your favorite candle is a must. You should also bring the outside in by having fresh flowers in a vase in your living room, as they add a touch of freshness and serenity. Lastly, focus on painting your walls in light colors like white or beige, and adding romantic light curtains, soft lighting and modern and comfortable furniture.

Juiced!

Y

ou could, perhaps, consider the saucy yet familiar glass of Florida orange juice a gateway drink: Familiar. Available. Delicious. But after, oh, thousands and thousands of glasses of fresh-squeezed orange juice, you might start wondering what else is out there: What else can I juice?

You don’t have to go too far for an answer beyond your wildest dreams; food-forward Palm Beach has you covered. Explore juices from the exotic—fancy strawberry pineapple ginger?—to the ever-popular apple mojito, a mix of red apple, green apple, lime, mint and kale (no rum included).

Over at The Breakers, director of food and beverage Nick Velardo is no stranger to juic-

ing. He personally has been juicing for six or seven years. He believes 100-percent organic is the way to go.

“It’s really important to me that it’s a great product to begin with,” Velardo says.

The Breakers was at the forefront of the juicing trend, bringing it to its customers about three years ago, before demand was heavy.

“I’m happy to say that last year, after three years into it, we probably sold more than 5,000 juices,” according to Velardo.

The Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach offers a green juice every day made with green apple, carrots, spinach and celery, as well as a rotating list that includes passion fruit-peachorange, guava-strawberry and watermelonmint-lime.

“The great thing about juicing is that you’re not cooking anything, so you’re getting all the vitamins and nutrients in their raw state,” says newly hired executive chef Tory Martindale.

“That’s why it’s so nice to have at breakfast, because that’s when your body is hungry for all the nutrients the different fruits (and vegetables) provide.”

Back at The Breakers, the second most popular juice is the “Garden Tea,” made with apple, pineapple, mint leaves, celery and parsley.

For the novice just getting into juicing and not quite ready to dive into a glass full of greens, there are options such as orangecarrot or apple-lemonade or adding in mint as a more approachable green.

The Breakers uses all organic vegetables that are chilled prior to juicing to make the end product as cold as possible.

For those juicing at home, Velardo recommends straining your juice and chilling it but not storing it (even refrigerated) more than two days for fresh-pressed juices.

“As you learn more about the benefits of juicing, you associate that juice with that health benefit, and you’ll start to love it,” Velardo says. “If people can do this for a couple of weeks, their body will let them know how wonderful it is.”

To get you started, Velardo offers up The Breakers’ recipe for its most popular “apple mojito” juice.

Time to Regenerate PAN’S GARDEN

Singled out as a Palm Beach destination last year in the New York Times’ “36 Hours in Palm Beach,” Pan’s Garden is a garden-lover’s haven, with 300 native Florida tree, shrub, grass and wild plant species. The Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach established the half-acre garden in 1994. Visitors are greeted

by a bronze statue of Pan of Rohallion, which depicts the ancient god of shepherds. Seems a perfect image for a garden that exists to protect and showcase the state’s indigenous (and endangered) plants. Among the botanical treasures: Jamaica caper and yaupon holly trees, locustberry shrubs, tangerine cross vine climbers and the scarlet milkweed herb.

WHERE: Across from the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach, 311 Peruvian Ave., Palm Beach.

Style Your Hair Like a Pro JEROME OBRY, CREATIVE DIRECTOR, JOHN BARRETT

With numerous runway shows and a client roster including Hillary Clinton, Paul McCartney and Paris Hilton, Jerome Obry, creative director at John Barrett Palm Beach, knows how to make your hair look beautiful. His work has been featured in Vogue, Vanity Fair and Allure, to name a few.

According to Obry, the key to ensuring beautiful hair every day is using the right products and protecting it from external elements like the sun and sea. As far as hairstyles that can be done at home in less than 10 minutes, he recommends going for ponytails and braids.

“With ponytails, the fundamental part is to find the correct placement, place it high and tease it for a sexy look, or leave it lower for a more simple and slick look,” he says. “You can also twist a pony and do a low bun, high bun or a chignon.”

Braids, on the other hand, “are a very playful thing,” he says.

From the classic French braid to the fishtail and Dutch, braids can be taken from day to night—or twist them into a bun for a chic look. “I recommend using gel or mousse; for a more aggressive look, go for a pomade or wax,” Jerome says. “When it comes to a side part, it is really up to your face structure.”

Nail Your Everyday Look TARA TRAIL, MAKEUP ARTIST, JOHN BARRETT

Tara Trail has some simple advice when it comes to makeup: Focus on enhancing your natural beauty.

“For an easy everyday look in less than five minutes, you start by framing your brows,” says Trail, who has represented a handful of beauty houses— from Estée Lauder and Yves Saint Laurent to Christian Dior and, most recently, Tom Ford, during her 15-plus years in the industry. “Then apply eye shadow and mascara, followed by foundation and concealer, a little bit of bronzer under the cheekbone and blush all over. Finish by applying a neutral lipstick.”

Taking it day to night? Just add liquid liner and deepen the eye shadow in the outer corners of the eye, retouch mascara and bronzer, and finish by applying a darker lipstick.

Tara’s tip: “Always sculpt your eyebrows,” she says. “They are the silhouette for the entire face and set the frame and architecture of it.”

cuisine of Angle, Eau’s stunning contemporary and locally sourced restaurant.

“Every vegetable has a season,” Thomsen says. “Whenever a vegetable’s in season, that’s the vegetable they should eat. Asparagus is great in asparagus season only. A tomato is great in tomato season only.”

Moving beyond the concept of farm-to-table, Siu is also pickling and fermenting a variety of vegetables. She and Thomsen are introducing a head-to-tail philosophy within the resort and applying that to animals and to vegetables. For example, Siu used cauliflower in a dish, then pickled the stems “because it was there.”

JASON NUTTLE

ory Martindale, the new executive chef of Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach, and Josh Thomsen, the new executive chef of Eau Palm Beach Resort, have been known to visit local farms and green markets in an attempt to find the best possible products.

But they don’t think that’s too big a deal.

“Everyone’s using the phrase farm-to-table.

But for us, it’s just cooking,” Thomsen says.

Thomsen, whose professional pedigree boasts restaurants such as The French Laundry and Patina, brought with him his longtime sous chef Manlee Siu, who joins him as the chef de

“I don’t believe in wasting anything—you should be able to use it (all),” she says.

Chef Martindale, who’s been known to man the grill at Swank Farms on his days off during impromptu “BBQ-offs” against other chefs, is also exploring the area farms and markets.

Then he’s applying his findings to add a whimsical feel to his menu.

For example, at the Atlantic Bar and Grill, Martindale is capitalizing on the trend of street-cart food. There’s the AB&G steak-house sushi roll: thinly pounded Prime beef rolled around oven-cured tomato, pea shoots, black truffle paste and avocado, curled up like a sushi roll. It’s served with pickled vegetables, wasabi, pickled ginger and a sweet soy reduction.

Martindale also has introduced a duo of conch fritters and rock shrimp ceviche served with plantain chips, reminiscent of his time spent working at the Four Seasons in the West Indies.

“I like to take a lot of whimsical play into the menu and make it not be stuffy,” Martindale says.

Green markets invigorate many cooks, but Café Boulud’s Rick Mace—the “senior” chef of this trio, with a whopping two years on the Island—is drawing his inspiration from books these days. His most recent project, for which he involved his entire team, involved a massive WORTH AVENUE

research project about our culinary history.

“It was a good opportunity for my team and myself to see what the indigenous flavors and the cultural influences of Florida are,” Mace says. “That’s been the cornerstone of our menu and our thinking from that point forward.”

This translated into the “Le Voyage” segment of Boulud’s menu, which for foodies includes dishes such as its Everglades frog legs with hearts of palm, nasturtium and tomato compote, and local black drumfish with shrimp and Minorcan sausage rice pilaf.

It’s also led to better-sourced product that’s not just reputable but also scalable: “You can always find something nice, you just can’t always find enough of it,” says Mace.

Mace is also getting both his and his staffs’ hands “in stuff more.”

“I built a smokehouse in the backyard—I built it myself out of wine boxes and a potbellied stove,” Mace says. “Those types of things are getting people more connected to traditional skills. Tending a garden is (one of ) the most basic things of being a cook.”

On this, all our chefs agree.

WORTH AVENUE IS SPARKLING WITH ACTIVITY ALL YEAR LONG, from lazy summer brunches to winter jewelry shows, art exhibits and festivals. There’s a reason Palm Beach County is known as America’s first resort destination, with everything from outdoor sports and pristine beaches to a vibrant cultural community­­­­­—and Worth Avenue is at the center of all, with spectacular shopping, dining and only-in-Palm-Beach diversions.

On the Avenue HISTORIC WALKING TOURS OF WORTH AVENUE Nov. 25, 2015 through April 27, 2016

Every Wednesday during the busiest season, November through April, local and international visitors have the opportunity to take an hour-long walking tour of Worth Avenue with historian Rick Rose. Through colorful anecdotes and commentary, the exciting and informative tours explore the origins and character of Worth Avenue, its unique architecture, the historical significance of many of its legendary landmarks and some of its famous residents. Tours begin at 11 a.m. in Via Amore (formerly Via Gucci) at 256 Worth Ave., across from Tiffany & Co. and Chanel. There is free two-hour parking along Worth Avenue or at the Apollo parking lot behind Tiffany for a small fee. The cost for the tour is $10 per person, a portion of which benefits local charities.

CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTING Dec. 1, 2015, 6-9 p.m.

Santa Claus, his elves and performers are decking the halls a little early this holiday season with Worth Avenue’s annual Christmas Tree Lighting, which marks the unofficial start to Palm Beach’s shopping season. Join the Worth Avenue Association and Palm Beach mayor Gail Coniglio for the annual parade down Worth Avenue and a night of holiday cheer. The parade begins at 6 p.m., but the real magic will be at 6:29 p.m., when the flip of a switch lights the magnificent 40-foot tree.

Be sure to get there early for a chance to get your little ones on Santa’s lap.

PET PARADE AND CONTEST March 12, 2016, 9:30 a.m.-noon

Dogs, cats and bunnies, oh my! The furriest of friends are welcome at Worth Avenue’s 21st annual Pet Parade and Contest. With creative and entertaining categories such as Best Smile, Most Obedient and Best Tail Wagger, owners and their pets have the opportunity to win great prizes and compete for the honor of being one of Palm Beach’s doggy divas. Watch as mistress of ceremonies, Worth Avenue personality Sherry Frankel, introduces each four-legged contestant on this very special dog day afternoon. Registration starts at 9:30 a.m., and the contest will begin at 10 a.m.

TURTLE TUESDAYS The second Tuesday of the month, June through October, 2016

Because Palm Beach is one of the largest nesting grounds for sea turtles in the world, Worth Avenue merchants, residents and visitors are welcomed on the second Tuesday of the month during nesting season to help collect and remove dangerous debris from the Palm Beaches. The Town of Palm Beach and the Worth Avenue Association provide supplies for the event as part of their community service initiatives. To add your name to the beach cleanup, submit your e-mail address to robinmiller@ worth-avenue.com with BEACH CLEANUP in the subject line.

It is said that it is the waters of Scotland, used in the finishing, that produce that singularly soft, luxurious touch that defines the world’s best cashmere - cashmere from Scotland. We agree.

We have visited the factories, we have observed the process.

We have yet to meet the goats, they roam the hills of Mongolia and Tibet. Someday, maybe.

By knowing the source of all that goes into Maus & Hoffman cashmere we can assure you that there is a difference.

Know the difference.

Hidden Treasures Discover the romance of Worth Avenue’s secret gardens and shops

BY MICHELL E F E R R A N D

P

art of the charm of strolling Worth Avenue is to discover the small courtyards—or vias—that lend the street its European ambience. The vias are just one element in Addison Mizner’s vision for Worth Avenue—places to pause, meander, explore. A via might have Italian sculptures, chandeliers, fountains, climbing bougainvillea or wrought-iron gates. There are tiled staircases and façades, dormer windows and alcoves, and a sense of privacy as well as drama. You may discover one-of-a-kind shops and galleries, as well as sculpture, tropical foliage, and even a tucked-away restaurant or two.

Here’s our thumbnail guide.

VIA MIZNER

FIND IT: Between: Select Fine Art and Style Paris, 300 block HIGHLIGHTS: Via Mizner is so named because Mizner used to live upstairs in the lavish apartment (still used as a residence today).

These days, the via is home to shops as well as the charming restaurant and courtyard that is Renato’s, a longtime fine dining establishment famous for its tinkling piano music and starry nights in the winter, when French doors are flung open, Champagne is popped, and patrons feel as if they are in Italy. And do not forget to look for the cemetery—the only one on the island—home to Mizner’s pet monkey, Johnnie Brown, and Laddie, a dog that belonged to a later Mizner apartment owner, Rose Sachs.

VIA PARIGI

FIND IT: Between: Brown Harris Stevens and Il Papiro, 300 block HIGHLIGHTS: Via Parigi is one of the original vias, which Mizner named for his good friend and financial backer Paris Singer in response to Singer’s less-than-enthusiastic viewing of Via Mizner (“How could you build a monument to yourself and not one for me?!”). A lush tropical garden with trees festooned with gold twinkling lights illuminate the small shops and apartments overlooking a fountain, surrounded by towering palms. There are statues of the four seasons topped by a whimsical turret flanking the entryway to a private residence. This is also home to Stubbs & Wootton, one the Palm Beach’s trademark shoe salons, famous for its embroidered slippers.

WWW.WORTH-AVENUE.COM

10/13/15 9:40 AM

VIA ROMA

FIND IT: Between: H.T. Stuart Jewelers and Mariko, 300 block HIGHLIGHTS: Via Roma leads to an old antique store and a small corridor with mysterious wrought-iron gates. Mariko, at the start of the via, is one of the Avenue’s unique jewelry stores—loaded with what we used to call costume jewelry but what we now call pretty irresistible.

VIA DEMARIO

FIND IT: Between: Courage B and East Coast Jewels Jewelers, 300 block HIGHLIGHTS: Grab a simple lunch and a cup of coffee from Café Delamar in between your shopping extravaganza. The small and colorful café is open for breakfast and lunch and offers a variety of cold and hot sandwiches, as well as salads. Unless it’s raining, sit outside to bask in the warm summer sun and enjoy the ocean’s breeze—the beach is a 10-minute walk from the cafe.

VIA BICE

FIND IT: Between: Peter Millar and Trillion, 300 block HIGHLIGHTS: Via Bice opens up with a giant blue-and-white arched walkway that immediately leads you to a replica of Venus de Milo (the original is at The Louvre). But perhaps

the real artistry here can be found in Bice, a landmark restaurant on Worth Avenue with a handsome convivial bar, an expansive patio, a reputation for glamorous European people and delectable Milanese cuisine.

VIA ENCANTADA

FIND IT: Between: Maje and Sandro, 200 block HIGHLIGHTS: This via features tropical chandeliers and luxurious gardens. Shops include tropical clothing, contemporary art, jewelry and luxury real estate.

VIA AMORE

FIND IT: Between: St. John Boutique and Island Company, 200 block HIGHLIGHTS: Exposed hanging chandeliers, flowers and trees with twinkly lights accentuate this via’s rustic feel—and serve as a backdrop for its sculptures, including a giant tulip, and a main courtyard with an angel and three pipers in the fountain. There is a wishing well amid the meandering nooks and crannies populated by sculptures by the late Prince Monyo of Romania. Look for three pigs, two leaping dolphins and several angels flitting about the arches and pergolas—as well as stately wrought-iron gates, balconies, staircases and torcheres. We love the takeout from nearby Café via Flora; don’t-miss stores

include Bibi’s Boutique, the smallest shop in town, and the elegant Kassatly’s linens, the oldest store on Worth Avenue.

VIA MARIO

FIND IT: Between: Maus & Hoffman and Ralph Lauren, 300 block HIGHLIGHTS: Via Mario was originally flanked by the Cadillac Motor Company (in 1931) and Saks & Company, in what was then known as the Glen Hodges Building. Back then, this via was called Via Marguary and was the scene of many a late-night revelry. George Lamaze moved his dining garden, Patio Lamaze, here in the 1930s. Today, the name has changed, but the playful, lighthearted gaiety can be seen in the angel sculptures and reflecting pond leading to iron gates and another statue of Venus, reaffirming the forever-young spirit of Palm Beach. When the Armani store came to Worth Avenue, it chose a site that contained Via Garzo, which passed through to Peruvian Avenue. With the design of the building, this via was closed off, and stately display windows were added on either side of the doorway.

Eat, Drink & Be Merry MOST COVETED CLUB MEMBERSHIP

It was envisioned initially in 1918 as a WWI wounded soldier hospital called the Touchstone Convalescent Club, and although its demographic may not be too far from that description today, what became the Everglades Club is still Palm Beach’s most exclusive private club. The Addison Mizner-designed club has

to mention Realtor Lawrence Moens, who decks out his house to the max every Christmas. Just like old times, everyone loves to pile into the car and drive by to oooh and aaahh.

BEST PLACE TO SEE AND BE SEEN

Table No. 1—the window table—at Ta-Boo is still the most coveted seat on The Avenue, but HMF at The Breakers is action central to spot who’s who in town, post-party revelers and local personalities.

COCKTAILS TO DIE FOR

no website, allows no cell phones and is famously picky about who can be a member, if you catch our drift. People think it’s stuffy, or too old, or out of touch, but it’s still the club of clubs in Palm Beach.

BEST HOLIDAY DECORATIONS

The Flagler Museum is worth a visit, as is Worth Avenue once the tree is lit—but we’d be remiss not

Mojitos may be a South Florida classic, and HMF at The Breakers is known for its highly skilled “mixologists,” but we have to say all that’s moot. Let’s face it: The only thing Palm Beach people drink is vodka. Straight up and cold.

Christmas at The Flagler Museum

The window table at Ta-Boo

BEST NEW RESTAURANT

Bouludsud, Café Boulud’s pop-up summer restaurant, was a big hit this year—an extension of Daniel Boulud’s newest New York restaurant, Boulud Sud. But people are also talking about Jové at the Four Seasons and Jereve at Emko “across the bridge” in West Palm, land of mere mortals. There’s also a lot of buzz about the opening of Cooklyn at Esplanade—a new artisanal transplant from Brooklyn, now being described as New York’s “hippest borough.” (Who knew?)

10/19/15 2:41 PM

The Breakers has a famous Sunday brunch that’s practically Roman in its decadence, but these days we also are loving Graze at the Four Seasons. Its endless Bloody Marys and Mimosas are a fine start, but the buffet is mind-boggling: eggs to order, a build-your-own waffle station, chilled oysters, prawns, snow crab claws, house-smoked salmon, sushi, breakfast pastries, cheeses and charcuterie, a carving station, pasta, burgers, salads. This is the kind of over-the-top Sunday Funday we love—as long as it’s followed by a nap.

SUNDAY BRUNCH

The Polo Lounge at The Colony

LOCAL HANGS

McCarty’s and Cucina are always popular, but so are Stir at Eau Palm Beach, the bar at the Brazilian Court and, if you are a desperate housewife, the Leopard Lounge at the Chesterfield.

BARTENDERS WE LOVE

Philippe or Jesse at Bice has your drink—expertly wrought—ready for you on the bar before you even sit down. Which is especially handy during its two-for-one happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. daily.

Memory Lane

the Supremes to Gladys Knight & the Pips, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye—all the greats. We dare you not to dance.

BEST WEDDING RECEPTION VENUE

The Venetian Ballroom at The Breakers; for the second marriage, the Gold Room. And if you are one of the anointed: The Orange Garden at the Everglades Club.

BEST FRIDAY NIGHT DIVERSION

The sweet and stately Colony Hotel gets its classic Motown sound on in the Polo Lounge every Friday night from 9 p.m. until closing. The trio, called Memory Lane, is bad and bold and does a mean repertoire of everything from the Temptations and

Boston-based Bryan Rafanelli (Rafanelli Events), with offices in D.C. and New York, is event planner to the stars, with gigs like Chelsea Clinton’s wedding and clients like the Boston Public Library, Ralph Lauren and Louis Vuitton. Rafanelli has done the Red Cross Ball among other notable island events; he is to society parties what Peter Duchin once was to society orchestras.

Rafanelli has been named “Man of the Moment” by Town & Country (2010), a 2011 “Innovator” and “Event Producer of the Year” by BizBash, one of OUT magazine’s “100 Most Compelling People” in 2010 and a “Trendsetter of the Year” by Modern Bride. Having a party? Call “Bryan,” as they say in Palm Beach. No last name required.

STYLE ICON

No one’s exactly sure where Iris Apfel got her style, but this geriatric poster girl for drama in fashion continues to dazzle. Maybe it was her stint as a young girl for Women’s Wear Daily or her firm with husband Carl, Old World Weavers, or her many design restoration projects, including work at the White House for nine presidents: Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan and Clinton. In 2005, The Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art hosted an exhibition lauding her style called “Rara Avis” (Rare Bird), and in 2013 she was listed as one of the 50 bestdressed over 50 by The Guardian. Most recently, Albert Maysles’ documentary “Iris” was launched into worldwide distribution. A rare bird indeed.

CAR OF THE YEAR

The Maserati Ghibli replaces the Bentley, which replaced the Mercedes a few years ago. And it’s practically a steal at around $60,000.

The Nuova Simonelli espresso machine

The everyday Palm Beach look involves a concerted effort to appear effortlessly sun-kissed, vaguely preppy and singularly unstudied. Casual. Classic. Bare legs and good cotton. Except when it comes to the Sunday polo match where everyone throws understated to the wind and does it up, from heels to hats to designer totes.

And then there’s the Red Cross Ball, when no one fools around; the real couture and the family jewels come out blazing.

HAIR CARE

John Barrett of John Barrett

Salon is the hairdresser of the hour these days. And that expensive and distinctive Champagne blonde color? Trade secret.

HOST WITH THE MOST

Rob Russell of the Royal Room at The Colony Hotel—producer, director, entertainment director, bon vivant—is synonymous with this classic cabaret, inching toward its 20th year in Palm Beach. Russell

is the heart and soul of the room, always impeccable, always warm and welcoming. He remembers his guests, and the performers love him—people like Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr., Ann Hampton Callaway, Michelle Lee, Julie Budd, Diahann Carroll, Marilyn Maye, Melissa Manchester and Ben Vereen. Russell does it all, booking the performers, attending to details, even taking the stage now and then. With a lifelong love of Broadway and a degree in musical theater from the State University of New York at Fredonia, Russell has the stage in his blood— and it shows. “I call him the Prince of the Royal Room,” Marilyn Maye once said.

Well put.

AMERICAN RED CROSS INTERNATIONAL BALL: This white-tie-and-tiara evening may be a wee bit stuffy (some would say pretentious), but it has its share of glamour, and visiting ambassadors and dignitaries. Red gowns are highly favored.

lusting after (Birkin, Michael Kors and Hermès are faves) as well as enjoy a nationally known speaker at lunch, all the while supporting social service programs. Past speakers have included Joan Lunden, George Hamilton, Patty Duke, Joan Rivers and others.

NORTON MUSEUM OF ART BAL DES ARTS: This night at the museum is how you show your more cultured side—and it’s always well done.

THE PRESERVATION FOUNDATION OF PALM BEACH ANNUAL GALA: This is old guard dinner dancing at its best, and you’d be lucky to receive an invitation. If it arrives, so have you.

BEST SPEAKER SERIES

The Society of the Four Arts was founded in 1936 to offer a cultural component to the Palm Beach resort community—perhaps a brave little beacon in the gathering dusk of a thousand cocktail parties.

The organization offers films, art exhibitions and other programs, but it is best known for its speaker series, which attracts big names like Colin Powell, Peggy Noonan, Stanley Tucci, George Will, Judy Collins and Bob Woodward. The bad news is that there’s a waiting list for membership; still, visitors who are not members can attend for $35. The Four Arts campus also features sculpture gardens, a library and an art gallery.

Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Delray Beach

Exploring South Florida

Palm Beach County and South Florida are exceptional vacation destinations—and highlight the best of the state in recreation as well as culture.

BY JACKIE SMITH

Arts & Culture NORTON MUSEUM OF ART, WEST PALM BEACH

One of the Southeast’s premier art museums, as well as the largest in Florida, the Norton Museum of Art has been a cultural fixture in West Palm Beach since 1941. Founded by Ralph Hubbard Norton and wife Elizabeth Calhoun Norton, the museum is known for the quality of its permanent collection, traveling exhibitions and innovative educational programs.

The internationally renowned permanent collection features more than 7,000 works, concentrated in European, American, Chinese and contemporary art and photography. The museum also offers a year-round schedule of special exhibitions.

Not only can a visitor lose himself among the thousand different pieces of art, the museum offers “DIY” art projects every Thursday night where everyone in the family can take turns creating the next big masterpiece. But if participat-

102

ing in—or just listening to—a verbal dissection of a particular collection is what excites you, it would be best to explore the museum’s “Art 101” discussions or its “Exhibition Lecture Series.”

As part of your admission fee, free public tours are available, and private group tours may be arranged. Tours offer the opportunity to wander through the museum’s exhibits or follow a guide through particular art collections like “The Artists of Paris” or “Artist, Patron, Muse: Women in the Arts.”

The Norton Museum of Art, at 1451 S. Olive Ave., is closed on Mondays and on major holidays. Hours are Tuesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

But on Thursdays, hours are extended to 9 p.m. for its weekly Art After Dark program. Visitors 21 and older will get to sip on a glass, or two, of wine while indulging on gourmet dishes from the museum’s café, Fratelli Lyon. They can also enjoy DIY art projects, lectures, live music and film screenings.

General admission to the permanent collection costs $12 for adults, $5 for students and is free for members and children 12 and younger.

However, admissions on Thursdays are halfprice all day for Florida residents.

For more information, call 561/832-5196 or visit norton.org.

PAN’S GARDEN, PALM BEACH

Standing with flute in hand, the bronze

statue of Pan of Rohallion welcomes visitors to this green oasis in the center of Palm Beach.

Pan’s Garden is a half-acre filled with Southern magnolia trees, scarlet milkweeds and about 300 more species of Florida native vegetation.

Visitors can walk through the tranquil pathways or relax on a bench under the garden’s roofed, open pavilion. At 386 Hibiscus Ave., Pan’s Garden is open to the public weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. General admission to the gardens is free. For more information, call 561/832-0731.

FLAGLER MUSEUM, PALM BEACH

The development of Florida’s economy and status as a tourist destination can be attributed to Henry Flagler, who built the Florida East Coast Railway from Jacksonville to Key West. Flagler and his wife Mary Lily Kenan spent their winters in the Beaux-Arts mansion Whitehall, known today as the Flagler Museum. Visitors to the museum can take audio, self-guided or docent-led tours of the estate and Henry Flagler’s private railcar, built in 1886 for his personal use. Those who visit on Sunday have the pleasure of hearing Whitehall’s weekly organ demonstration.

At the corner of Cocoanut Row and Whitehall Way, the museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. Regular admission is $18 for adults, $10 for kids ages 13 to 17, $3 for children ages 6 to 12, and free for children 6 and younger. For more information call 561/6552833 or visit flaglermuseum.us.

The zoo frequently plays host to family festivals, children’s educational programming, holiday breakfasts, keeper talks and wildlife shows. Visitors can also partake in the Aldabra Tortoise Experience—feeding, bathing and taking photographs with the animal for $20 per person (members prices are $5 cheaper).

In 2011, the New World Center opened, replacing the symphony’s previous location on Lincoln Road.

THE CHESTERFIELD PALM BEACH 363 Cocoanut Row 561/659-5800, chesterfieldpb.com It’s veddy British, veddy cozy and a delight of a hotel—one of the island’s really great spots—but

we’d have to make our favorite amenity The Leopard Lounge.

Known as one of the best places to get a drink and people-watch, the venue has live entertainment every day of the week, as well as great drink and food specials. If you’re out for the day, join the Chesterfield for afternoon tea from 1–5 p.m., complete with tiny sandwiches, scones and pastries.

Turtles, Zoos & Other Good Works Worth Avenue is about more than shopping; giving back is high on the agenda.

BY CRESONIA HSIEH

G

regg Beletsky was reared in a family where contributing to food drives and doing volunteer work were not just commonplace, but “part of the family DNA.” So when Beletsky became president of the Worth Avenue Association in 2012, one of his first initiatives was to start supporting a designated charity each year through its “Historical Walking Tour of Worth Avenue” program.

“We needed to give back. Our communities give so much into our business sectors. It (was) time for our business sectors to give back into our community.”

Since 2012, the nonprofit has donated all net proceeds from its weekly tours, supporting local nonprofits such as Forever FamJack Lighton ily, Loggerhead Marinelife Center and Els for Autism Foundation.

For 2016, it will be supporting the Palm Beach Zoo. “We felt it important to embrace the zoo, which is in our neighborhood, and kind of align ourselves with them and cross-promote, so that we can make people aware of some of the great things we have in our community,” Beletsky says.

Other ways the Association gives back sometimes involve getting down and dirty. Every second Tuesday in June, July, September and October, Beletsky and other merchants, residents and tourists gather to clean up the beach. The initiative is affectionately called “Turtle Tuesdays.”

According to Robin Miller, general manager of the Worth Avenue Association, the debris collected in June and July alone surpassed

the total amount of debris that was collected last year.

Jack Lighton, president of Loggerhead Marinelife Center, says that in the last two years, the Turtle Tuesday initiative has removed more than 4,000 pounds of debris.

Lighton says that a beach free of debris means that incoming female sea turtles can create nests more easily and safely, and hatchlings can return to the water without being ensnared by litter.

“What the Worth Avenue Association did, and has continued to do under Gregg and Robin’s leadership, is enact what we see as the most consistent community beach cleanup that exists on the island of Palm Beach,” Lighton says. “Before the Worth Avenue Association created Turtle Tuesdays, there was not consistent ongoing cleaning of these beaches.”

Lighton says that its efforts also have helped to engage the community, create awareness, spark meaningful dialogue and protect not only some of the world’s most important sea turtle nesting grounds but also one of the most popular tourist destinations in Florida.

“It’s important that businesses hold stake in our community,” Beletsky says. “It is their responsibility to lead by example, to make an impact on a day-in and day-out basis on where they live and work.”

For Beletsky and the Worth Avenue Association, this means thankful charities, a close-knit community and pristine beaches for years to come.
