31st Annual Art Fest By The Sea - Got to eat!

31st Annual Art Fest By The Sea

Over 300 artists set up shop this weekend for the annual Art Fest. The event is free, pet friendly…read moreand on the water. Gorgeous oceanside location with bus shuttles and parking was available across the street for twenty dollars. We went with the $20 option which was without a doubt well worth it. The festival was packed with people of all ages & it was lovely seeing so many people spending the day outdoors with their precious fur babies. Several food vendors were on hand selling crabcakes, gyros, lobster rolls, souvlaki, stir fry, frozen lemonade, fresh squeezed lemonade, and so much more. We had lunch before we came so I didn't try any of the food. The smell of freshly popped popcorn was tempting but I wasn't hungry. The artists set up tents, gallery style with special lighting to showcase their work. Jewelry, sculpture, woodwork, paintings, large unusual mailboxes, fine delicate silk tops; it was all here plus so much more. Coming here wasn't planned but once I found out about it I was excited to go, although I do wish I had my sneakers on. I had a good time and enjoyed some sunny Florida weather for a change. This is an annual event and I hope to return next year, in my sneakers of course.

It was supposed to be a cloudy hot day on this wonderful Sunday in Juno Beach. I had read from one…read moreof my Yelp friends that there was a Juno ArtFest by the ocean on A1A. From what I read, there are about three hundred national and international artists showcasing art of all kinds. As we drove close to the ArtFest, we noticed that there was preferred parking for twenty dollars. I of course was not going to have any of that. So I found a close by hideaway and parked for free with others that had the same idea. The good news was that my car was still there when I returned three hours later. It was a free pet friendly experience with many diverse art items on display such as sculpture, jewelry, woodwork, paintings, wearable art, live plants, along with delicious fast food and drinks. It was sweaty blast and somehow we found a way to once again purchase numerous creative artistic pictures & sculptures that we will wonder why we bought a month later. Well, we will probably give them as gifts to our kids which they will probably re-gift them eventually to somebody else. Overall it was a great way to spend a wonderful beautiful Sunday in Juno Beach.

There were absolutely no artists involved with designing and managing this festival. Nothing about…read morethis festival was art-inspiring or art-centric--who was this event even catering to? Everything from the festival's branding to art booths was drenched in corporate mediocrity. All the art was the same--generic, expressionless, a copy and paste of every other booth there. It's the kind-of art that you don't give a second glance while you're sitting in a doctor's waiting room. There were probably 200 booths and you only needed to look at one to understand the rest. Why not any performers? Surely a local dance troupe or band could've been spotlighted? Only in South Florida could you charge the prices they did too. It was $40 for two admission tickets and parking--and that was with my boyfriend's work discount. Now that we've gone and seen what this is, we wouldn't go back in the future for free. Note to Artigras--get the C-Suites far away from this project and employ some actual artists to run this. With all the heaviness in the world today, create an event that brings the community light and inspiration. Make it fun, entertaining, give people something they can learn and feel moved by. Isn't that the point of an art festival?

On Presidents' Day weekend parts of Central Avenue in ABACOA get fenced off (can you really close a…read morepublic street for a private purpose? - this grinds my gears) and you get charged between $10-13 ($22 for a three day ticket online) to see artists from around the country display their wares in 10'x10' booths. Some nice stuff. Nothing too too compelling, but a decent variety and certainly some talent on display. A nice walk in any event, although it can be warm when there is no cloud cover. $3 sodas, water, and other snacks and beverages are available. This includes beer and at least one artisanal booze booth. Children under 12 are not charged admission.

Battle of the Loxahatchee

This Saturday was the annual recreation of the Battle of the Loxahatchee which took place on…read moreJanuary 24, 1838. The battle was between the United States Army and the Seminole Indians joined by former slaves. The event is organized by the Loxahatchee Battle Preservationists. This year was the 182nd anniversary of the battle. The battle took place during the Second Seminole War on land that is now Riverbend Park. Part of the park has been renamed Battlefield Park in honor of the battle that took place. You can still find artifacts from the battle in the park but they ask that you don't take anything. Starting at 9 AM the event has food trucks, period dressed actors, Seminole and army camps, weapons demonstrations, displays, speakers, and tours. At 2 PM the highlight of the day is the recreation of the battle. Unlike a lot of recreations, this one takes place on the actual ground the battle was fought on. This is actually the Second Battle of the Loxahatchee. The First Battle of Loxahatchee took place on January 15. As part of the Indian Removal Act, the army was sent to round up the last of the Seminoles and send them out to Oklahoma on the Trail of Tears. In the First Battle of Loxahatchee naval personal led by Lieutenant Levin M. Powell were defeated by the Seminoles. When Colonel Jessup heard what happened to Powell he headed down with more than 1,500 soldiers to square off against several hundred Seminoles and former slaves that had joined their tribe. The Seminoles were led by their medicine man and war chief Sam Jones who was eventually able to guide his people to safety in the Everglades where they hid until the army finally gave up. The Seminoles are the only tribe to never sign a peace treaty with the US government. During the battle a somewhat humorous exchange takes place between Colonel Jessup and Major Lauderdale who the cit of Fort Lauderdale is named after. During the battle Colonel Jessup wants Lauderdale to take his Tennessee Volunteers and pursue the Seminoles. Lauderdale refuses which causes Jessup to draw his gun on him and threaten him. Lauderdale tells him to go ahead and shoot because if he goes after the Seminoles he is just going to die anyway and then walks off. Jessup proceeds thinking the volunteers are behind him and promptly gets shot in the face. It may not souund funny but watching the scene pantomimed out while the announcer relayed what was happening had everyone in hysterics. Major Lauderdale died on his way back to Tennessee and Colonel Jessup survived his injuries. In later years he engaged in political activism on behalf of the Seminoles. Before giving up his post to future president Zachary Taylor, he wrote a letter to President Ban Buren requesting that the Seminoles be left in peace and to end the conflict. The was the last and largest battle in the Second Seminole War, the longest Indian War in the history of the United States. It may not be as well known as some of the other battles because for 150 years it's location was unknown. All over the park is historical markers to let you know where different parts of the fighting occurred. One marker at the base of a 300 year old oak tree is particularly poignant. It is where it is believed the Seminole laid their dead warriors after the battle. This was my second year attending this fabulous, free event. It is not very often that you can attend historical re-enactments in our area. The next one will be the Raid on Fort Pierce held on the second weekend in March. I loved my trip back in time and I highly recommend this event.
