ArtReach

The Lighthouse ArtCenter’s outreach program, ArtReach, offers art instruction and materials to individuals who would otherwise not have the exposure to fine arts. We serve students with mental and physical disabilities, as well as those who are economically disadvantaged or elderly. Our accomplished faculty, Valerie Sun, Esther Gordon and Theresa Miles, utilize a comprehensive curriculum to address the specific needs of the students. We have the privilege of working with Sandy Pines, Jupiter Medical Center and the Hobe Sound Community Chest as well as numerous local schools and special needs programs (both off-site and on-site). The positive impact this program has had on the students is remarkable, and would not be possible without the continued support of our members, donors and grants.  For more information, contact Maria Tritico, Director of Education at Maria@LighthouseArts.org.

Solidarity Fish

As Florida faces devastating pollution to our waterways, we are fishing for artistic development and environmental change! Solidarity Fish, created by our curator, Janeen Mason, have become an icon of the clean water movement in Florida. They have been seen in the Everglades and at the White House, on the steps of the Capitol Building in Tallahassee, in most major media outlets in Florida, as well as the New York Times. We continue to raise awareness and inspire stewardship with this striking participatory art project. In the summer of 2017, more than 300 children in our ArtCamp created solidarity fish revealing the potential we all have to TURN IT AROUND. For more information, visit SolidarityFish.com.
