Join us from 5:00pm-9:00pm at the St. Augustine Art Association during the First Friday Art Walk for the Opening Reception of new exhibits and presentations. Visit the Art Association’s website for all the details on the current months’ exhibit; they change on a monthly basis.  During this month’s event, the award winning plein air artisits will be announced at 7:00pm followed by a musical performance by First Coast Opera, “Opera Ole”.  The event is free and open to the public.

In addition to the plein air display, a Tribute Exhibition for the late Jean Wagner Troemel will be showcased in the Marguerita Phillips Gallery. It includes pieces from local and regional art collectors, the St. Augustine Art Association permanent collection and the private collection of the artist. Troemel, who died in January, was an iconic artist, advocate and philanthropist in the local community. She would have celebrated her 97th birthday on May 4, the opening of her exhibit.
