There's a great variety of styles, plenty to walk around and see, and the atmosphere is lively and family-friendly. My biggest tip: come early to beat both the crowds and the heat so you can really take your time enjoying the artwork. It makes the experience so much more enjoyable. Definitely worth checking out if you love art, community events, or just want something different to do.

The most amazing thing is when you look at a piece of art with your naked eyes and then look at it through the lens of your phones camera and it brings it to live.

You can…read morefind the colorful sculpture of a family comprising of a father, mother, and daughter made out of metal next to the playground. The Family was created by artist Peter Otfinoski in 2002 out of recycled painted steel. Otfinoski was born in 1951 and grew up on a farm in New England. He honed his self taught artistic talent while working in mental institutions as a young man and he learned to weld metal from his uncle who repaired farm equipment. In 1990 Otfinoski moved to rural Loxahatchee where he built a sculpture park called the Lovehappiness Institute. Many of his large steel figures are crafted from old restaurant kitchens. Besides creating sculptures, Otfinoski is also an oil painter. His work has been exhibited at The Portland Museum of Art, The Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art, The New Britain Museum of American Art and The Menello Museum of Folk Art in Orlando. I love this whimsical and bright sculpture. If you look closely at the mothers arm you can see the word love. To me the sculpture represents the families that come to enjoy the park and the love they have for each other. I enjoyed learning about Peter Otfinoski and since he is a local artist I will be on the lookout for more of his work the next time I visit an art museum.

You can best view her under the Lake Worth Bridge from the piers of the Snook Islands. It turns out this lady has a story and a name, Uhame which means spirit in Hawaiian. She was painted by Hawaiian artist Sean Yoro for the 2017 Canvas Art Festival. Yoro's art can be found all over the world. Many of his works blend humans and nature together. He has completed more than 50 murals, many on walls. He has even completed murals under water. His twin brother Kapu often documents his work. Yoro said that he was inspired to create Uhame by the City of Lake Worth itself. Lake Worth reminded him of Hawaii and he wanted the mural to reflect the peacefulness of the water and the nature of the city. I have always loved this piece and I am happy to finally know more about it.

In the 1980's she worked in fashion design and was recognized by the Fashion Institute of Technology for her unique designs. In the 1990's she decided to concentrate solely on sculptures and learned metal fabrication and welding in trade schools in New York and Florida. Today she creates metal sculpture in her studio in Lake Worth. I love mermaids so this sculpture caught my eye as I was walking back from the Snook Islands. This is not a classic sculpture of a mermaid but a more abstract form of a sea nymph although you can clearly make out the tail.The face of the mermaid is an open circle. Claudia Jane Klein thought a mermaid sculpture was perfect for Lake worth since it is directly on the Lake Worth Lagoon and ocean. She donated her time and money to create the piece and gifted it to the city in partnership with the Lake Worth Street Painting Festival who maintains it. You can find The Mermaid in Bryant Park across from the golf course. She is next to the fountain. I think she adds artistic interest to the park.

Booked a room at the Barefoot Mailman Motel for multiple nights while we are in town supporting a…read moreparent in the ICU at JFK. The online reviews were 8+ on average so that gave us confidence to book sight unseen. Arrived very late and were ushered to our room - ready to collapse after a long day. The place has POTENTIAL to be really cute - which makes it all the sadder that it isn't being maintained how you'd hope. Barefoot should be renamed to Barebones - because our room was very basic upon arrival. I understand it is a 2 star motel but I still expected a minimum of clean / bug free. Immediately after getting to our room, I make a pit stop in the restroom where I see a sugar ant infestation. Here's the thing - sugar ants can happen to any space. That's not the real issue. It's that no one notices when rooms are being "maintained" and therefore it isn't remedied prior to booking that room. We are after midnight at this point so we just climb into bed and call it a night. The next morning I wake up to sugar ants on my phone, which was lying in bed next to me. Ok now I've got the "ick" factor, as ANYONE would. My boyfriend sees some on the kitchen counter as well. We message Michelle who says they will work with the pest control contact and have them go check things out and would "be back in touch". Hours later we call for a status as we decide whether or not to move lodging based on her response. My boyfriend calls and speaks with Michelle who essentially says "housekeeping nor pest control saw any ants" and "aren't sure what else we can do". They tossed some packets of chemicals ON OUR BEDDING, something comparable in the bathroom and considered it solved. We arrive back to the room just before bed (10:30pm) and see the packets on the bed (what's more disgusting? Sleeping with bug killing chemicals or the bugs themselves?), a ton of sugar ants in all the same spots, etc. We've sent videos via text to Michelle explaining we weren't staying. We dropped keys in the drop box outside room #19 and checked into different lodging (which was without issue, I might add). The next morning we get a text saying they were sending someone out again to take care of the issue even though we'd already told them we were checking out and would pay for the one night we actually stayed - obviously expecting a refund for the remaining four nights. After a bit of back and forth, she agreed to refund those nights. Somehow she calculated approximately $36 less than we were owed - even after we showed the original booking amounts, fees, etc. The real coup-de-gras was being accused of stealing one of their "K-mart called for their circa 1991 quality" bath towels and she intended to charge us for it. I can assure you, we wouldn't want the buggy towels you place in your rooms. So while you see positive reviews and a thin veil of charm covering the bugs, rest assured-- you should spend your money on lodging elsewhere.

The property guy, Cory, met me to welcome me as a guest. Super dude! The BM motel earns its charm by putting your feet on the property. Parking is tight.

The rooms are a small footprint, but these days, peeps should consider good sleeping (yes!!) than the spacious Ritz approach. And where is it? In the middle of walking distance foodies and the Lantana beach. Wow! I pulled up, kinda felt freaked early, then I was, "This is it! Diamond in the rough." Old Key Lime House restaurant on intracoastal is nice way to end an evening. Go on. You deserve to be surprised in Life. Try a 2-night stay and envision old Florida at the Barefoot Mailman motel.
