Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens
The sculptor's own acre: Ann Weaver Norton's home, studio, monumental brick figures and rare palm collection.
The Palm Beaches' main stage since 1992: Dreyfoos Hall and a season of touring theater, concerts and dance.
The Kravis Center is where the Palm Beaches go for the performing arts at scale. Opened in downtown West Palm Beach in September 1992, its Alexander W. Dreyfoos Jr. Concert Hall seats more than 2,000, and the complex carries Broadway tours, orchestras, dance and the local companies through a season that mirrors the island's own.
For island residents it functions as the town's de facto opera house and concert hall, fifteen minutes over the middle bridge, and its education programs have put millions of schoolchildren in front of live performance since opening.
