The consultant Palm Coast government hired to map out how best to develop the city’s Arts District in Town Center is recommending building a $73 million (not including debt interest), 76,000 square foot multipurpose entertainment and conference center not focused exclusively on arts and culture. The venue would by far be the most expensive city facility ever built.

Flagler’s Visual Arts Struggle for Visibility With Seeming Demise of Art League and Gargiulo Foundation

December 22, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 1 Comment

Since Tom Gargiulo's death and Arlene Volpe's departure for North Carolina, Palm Coast's visual arts scene has not been the same. The demise of the Flagler County Art League hasn't helped. (© FlaglerLive)

Palm Coast Ups Cultural Arts Grants to Record $50,000, But Increase Is Less Than It Appears

October 13, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 1 Comment

Academic freedom free speech Magritte's "La Trahison des Images" ("The Treachery of Images"), 1929.

This year’s budgeted amount of $50,000 for arts grants is the highest since the city began the program in 2002, and it is already the highest amount awarded. But in inflation-adjusted dollars, the city is budgeting less than it has in five previous years, and in per-resident spending on the arts, it is still spending less than it did in the first eight years of the program.

ThemToo: ‘Men Painting Women’ Treads Political Minefield at Art League of Daytona Beach

August 19, 2022 | FlaglerLive | 4 Comments

“Iris” by Leonardo Montoya

The curator of the exhibit, opening at the Art League of Daytona Beach Saturday with works from Palm Coast artist Weldon Ryan and four others, is aware that “Men Painting Women” may be seen by some as politically incorrect these days. But the exhibition stems from both sublime art history and simple serendipity among his circle of friends.
