The CVE Art Club is in full swing for the 2025–26 season.
Our December meetings were enjoyed by all. Featured presentations included our new and improved CVE Art Club website, introduced by webmaster Ellen “Cookie” Hilert; potter Henry “Hank” Glener; and artist Adeline Wiener.
We also collaborated in the first-ever CenClub “Club Crawl,” which provided a wonderful opportunity for Village residents to sample the many clubs available at CVE. Thank you to everyone who participated.
The second season of the Art Club Book Club is now underway, led by Gayle Solomon. Members enjoyed a lively discussion of Luncheon at the Boating Party, which explores the life and times of artist Auguste Renoir. The January 22 meeting will feature the book My Name Is Asher Lev. Please visit our website for additional details.
The Art Club Gallery, located adjacent to the Theatre behind the elevator, showcased the artwork of Gail Dorf Rothfeld in December. We look forward to featuring the following artists this season: Maxine Bloom in January, Johnny Elwood in February, and Nelson Mercado and Sandro Derrick in March. The Gallery is curated by Ruth Levy-Franks and Gigi Ridgway.
Art Club meetings for the entire season are held on Friday mornings from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in Room GP-A in the Clubhouse. Members and guests are always welcome to join and engage in this vibrant artistic community. Upcoming meeting dates include January 9, 16, and 30; February 13, 20, and 27; and March 13.
Everyone is invited to visit the Art Store, located in the Art Studio on the first floor adjacent to the Library. The store is open on Fridays and Sundays from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. All proceeds support art scholarships awarded annually at the Art Expo to deserving high school seniors from Deerfield Beach High School.
Art Expo 2026 will take place on Friday, March 6; Saturday, March 7; and Sunday, March 8, in the Clubhouse Party Room. Residents and their guests are invited to attend this annual spectacular event free of charge.
