A Natural: The Atlantic Center for the Arts
I had the great pleasure of serving as a Master Artist at the Atlantic Center for the Arts in New Smyrna Beach, FL, from 5/10 – 6/1/13. The Center is the marvelous brainchild of sculptor Doris Leeper and is set in gorgeous natural surroundings, with boardwalks used to connect the buildings.
The staff is terrific too, and I can’t resist a shoutout to the co-directors Jim Frost and Nancy Lowden Norman; to Nick Conroy, residency and program director; program assistant Jill Tolson Rox and of course Chef Tom!
The dark green saw palmetto fronds and other dense, dark vegetation made me think I was walking inside a fantastic 3-D animation of an Henri Rousseau painting. There were naturalist touches too, with labels describing the plants and animal life. I remembered to turn left at the sign telling about one of the local insects – the cockroach – So, from my cottage…turn left at ‘cockroach’ to reach the music studio!
