Palm Beach Centennial

Yesterday, as part of the Palm Beach Centennial, there was an open house at the Palm Beach Hotel, built in 1926. Jane and I enjoyed delicious hors d'oeuvres and music. The celebration was for the hotel's designation as a national historic landmark as well as the town's 100th anniversary of the town’s incorporation. Gertrude Matthews, age 101, played the piano. Brenda Boozer sang and clarinetist, Teddy Abrams played.

Last night we attended a meeting of the Art Deco Society of the Palm Beaches where they had an interesting program on a special style known as Miami Modern (MiMo).
