It's that time of the year again! Palm Beach Cultural Council is Accepting Nominations for the 2016 MUSE AWARDS!



Sharpen your pencils! The Cultural Council Of Palm Beach is requesting your nominations for the 2016 Muse Awards!
Who will you honor this year?

The Muse Awards honor outstanding individuals and organizations for their contributions to art and culture in Palm Beach County.

 
The Muse Award serves as a wonderful way of recognizing the dedicated arts leaders and volunteers in our community who are devoted to the arts. Funds raised from the gala directly affect the lives of Palm Beach County students by ensuring that they are exposed to art and culture.
This year’s theme of “Everything Old is New Again” will explore the transition of our arts and cultural heritage in Palm Beach County from the 1900s to present day. It will also explore how art forms have been influenced by the changing times and the convergence of traditional and contemporary styles.

Call for Nominations

Muse Award recipients will be chosen through a competitive nomination process. Each nomination will be reviewed and scored by judges who are artists, community leaders, past recipients and Cultural Council board members. Award recipients will be announced prior to the event. The deadline for nominations is Wednesday, September 30, 2015 at 5 p.m..

Submit a Nomination »

Pocket Of Lollipops will Open the KeroWACKED Art & Music Fest at 10:30 AM

 Avant punk performance with a compelling, dissonant and limitless sensation to stimulate various compression and transverse physical properties to produce an intensity of No Wave stylings. The duo appear to play intuitively, with distinctive personalities that nonetheless draw from a single source.


Listen to 

What the say about Pocket of Lollipops..

I never thought we needed another husband-and-wife duo until I heard the strange, compelling, dissonant music of Pocket of Lollipops. This Miami duo fell into music after excelling at the other arts: Maite Urrechaga is a visual artist and Tony Kapel is a writer and filmmaker. The music they make together channels the energy, spontaneity and antiestablishment ethos of the New York No Wave movement of the early ‘80s – many of whose band members also dabbled in other art forms – creating an exciting antidote to the increasing sameness of so much indie rock today. -John Thomason, BocaMag
Pocket of Lollipops paints a picture of saccharine harmony  -Abel Folgar, Miami New Times
the coolly bizarro, No Wave stylings of Pocket of Lollipops- Omar Sommereyns, Flavorpill
the visually stunning, wildly entertaining duo POCKET OF LOLLIPOPS-Digital Love, Revolution
This quirky couple packs a punch of talents. From filming art documentaries to playing their musical duet, Maite and tony are not just song birds, they are also scene-makers sharing their own brand of artschmaltz all over town. -Oliver Sanchez, Swampspace Gallery.
Whatever your preference, music and art pretty much always go well together, and sometimes great artists make great music. That is the case with husband and wife team Tony Kapel and Maitejosune Urrechaga make both art and beautiful music together. -Liz Tracy, NBC Miami
While the band rehearsed for the performance, the musicians appeared to play intuitively, with distinctive personalities that nonetheless drew from a single source. - Colleen Dougher, City Link

"I can teach ANYONE to draw or paint.
You must want to draw or paint though. If this is something you want to learn then it is a wonderful journey! 
Creating is just taking three colors and making art from them!"
