by Ashleigh Walters
PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. - The Norton Museum of Art is offering free admission to residents of
Palm Beach County every Saturday for the next two years, thanks to a generous donation by Damon
and Katherine Mezzacappa.
Starting June 6, Palm Beach County residents will be admitted to the museum for free every Saturday. All Florida residents will be admitted for free every Thursday June 4 to September 3.
In addition, the Family Studio art class is now being offered every Saturday, and at a reduced cost.
Now, instead of $8 per person, it will cost just $1 per person. Kid-friendly tours are based on the Museum Collection and special exhibitions, then the children do creative activities based on what they've learned.
The experience lasts two hours, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. every Saturday starting June 6. It is geared to children ages 5 to 12 and each studio is limited to 25 children. To register for a Family Studio, call (561) 832-5196 ext. 1196, or visit www.norton.org/familystudio .
Now, thousands of Florida residents will benefit from the gift from the Mezzacappa family.
"Sadly, Mr. Mezzacappa passed away since the couple made this transformative gift, which was only one example of the generosity Mr. and Mrs. Mezzacappa have shown the Norton.
The Norton Museum is deeply grateful for the Mezzacappas' support, and proud to be a part of Mr. Mezzacappa’s remarkable legacy," a release from the museum stated.
The Norton is located at 1451 S. Olive Ave. in West Palm Beach, FL. Call (561) 832-5196, or visit www.norton.org for more information.
