Art Connects: Across the Ages – Lighthouse ArtCenter Hosts Meet the Artists Reception

LIGHTHOUSE ARTCENTER HOSTS “MEET THE ARTISTS RECEPTION” FOR ART CONNECTS: ACROSS THE AGES ON JUNE 16

Meet the artists from Lighthouse ArtCenter’s newest exhibition, “Art Connects: Across the Ages,” on Thursday, June 16, 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm at 373 Tequesta Drive, Tequesta, FL 33469. “Art Connects: Across the Ages” (running through August 6) features contemporary glass sculpture by world-renowned sculptors Chihuly, Lino, and Vallien; evocative wooden wall “CONSTRUCTS” by Artist Tom Casmer; original illustrations from bestselling “Fancy Nancy” children’s book series by Robin Priess Glasser; original illustrations from two of Author/Illustrator Roxie Munro latest award-winning children’s books; and Bryan Ballinger’s playful plastic 3D Faulty Dogs. The public is invited to meet two exhibiting artists, Tom Casmer and Roxie Munro, while enjoying the stunning art and the ArtCenter’s signature hors d’oeuvres and refreshments. Admission is free for members and a $5 donation for nonmembers. For more information, visit lighthousearts.org.

“Learn about Tom Casmer’s inspiration for his hand-milled wooden CONSTRUCTS that contrast with sculpted glass pieces from a preeminent private collection in our Spencer Gallery,” says Curator Janeen Mason. “In the Shorr Gallery, meet Roxie Munro, whose award-winning nonfiction children’s books are available for signing. Her original illustrations are showcased along with illustrations from the popular Fancy Nancy series by Robin Priess Glasser.”

Tom Casmer was raised in the Midwest and studied at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota, earning a BA Degree in Fine Art/Drawing and Painting. He later studied Design and Illustration, earning a BFA at the School of the Associated Arts (College of Visual Arts), also in St. Paul. Casmer has served on the faculties of the College of Visual Arts and Brown College in Minnesota and the Ringling College of Art + Design in Sarasota, Florida. Over his career, he has also worked as an Illustrator/Designer both in-house and as a freelance artist. The shapes and forms of his high relief wood sculptures are reminiscent of Louise Nevelson and influenced by machines, diagrams, blueprints, and schematics which become the underlying themes in his work. These CONSTRUCTS are hand-milled with deep textural relief using a variety of sustainable woods.

Author and Illustrator Roxie Munro, visiting from Manhattan, has written and illustrated more than 45 award-winning nonfiction and concept children’s books and has 14 New Yorker magazine covers published. On exhibition are her original illustrations from “Dive In” and “Anteaters, Bats and Boas” and a selection of her New Yorker cover illustrations. Munro’s illustrations from both “Dive In” (2020) and “Anteaters, Bats & Boas” (2021) are exhibited in a colorful segmented mural. The illustrations are true-to-size sea creatures and rainforest animals living in their colorful ecosystems. “Anteaters, Bats & Boas” was recently awarded Bank Street Best Children’s Book of the Year 2022 and was recognized by American Scientist as one of the Top 12 STEM Books for children. Munro will be available for questions and book signings.

Tire Kingdom Partners with the American Heart Association to Recognize the Importance of CPR at a Local High School

Tire Kingdom Partners with the American Heart Association to Recognize the Importance of CPR at a Local High School

PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL – June 1, 2022 – Tire Kingdom® Service Centers, a leader in the automotive aftermarket space with over 200 stores throughout Florida, worked alongside the American Heart Association (AHA) to provide CPR equipment to Royal Palm Beach High School for National CPR and AED Awareness Week. This annual initiative, which takes place from June 1 through June 7, raises awareness regarding sudden cardiac arrest and stresses the importance of CPR and automated external defibrillator (AED) use.

Tire Kingdom partnered with the AHA, an organization that has been fighting heart disease and stroke and helping families and communities thrive for nearly 100 years, to donate two CPR training kits. These kits will be used by educators, school nurses, and student leaders to not only train groups of 10 to 20 students at once, but can also be used to extend lifesaving training to parents, volunteers, and community members.

“CPR can double or triple someone’s chance of surviving cardiac arrest,” said Stacey Comerford, Vice President of Development for the American Heart Association Palm Beach County. “The majority of cardiac arrests that happen outside of a hospital, happen at home. That’s why we’re so passionate about training people of all ages to provide CPR, because it enables them to save lives out in the community but also to potentially save the lives of their family members in an emergency.”

The CPR in Schools Training Kit™ enables students to learn the lifesaving skills of hands-only CPR in as little as 30 minutes. Plus, it teaches AED use and choking relief, creating more qualified lifesavers in our communities and ultimately safer communities. The importance of CPR training has also been recognized across the country as 39 states now require student CPR training as a graduation requirement. The program is a wonderful enhancement to current health and physical education curriculum. 

“To have these CPR training kits is so important,” said Principal Michelle Flemming. “It’s really an honor to be able to train our students to save lives in an emergency situation.”

The School District of Palm Beach County is the tenth-largest in the nation and the fifth-largest in the State of Florida. As the largest employer in Palm Beach County, the School District has 22,600 employees, including more than 12,900 teachers. Royal Palm Beach Community High School, part of the School District of Palm Beach County, is dedicated to meeting the holistic needs of all students. In August, Tire Kingdom  also unveiled a wellness area at the school to improve mental and physical health for teachers, faculty, and staff enabling them to continue to provide the best support for students.

“We are honored to once again partner with the American Heart Association and Royal Palm Beach High School in our efforts to build a culture of health and wellness,” said Brian Maciak, EVP, General Counsel & Chief Compliance Officer of TBC Corporation, the parent company of Tire Kingdom, who oversees social responsibility. “This relationship over the past year has allowed us the opportunity to provide essential tools to educate and engage students and faculty while inspiring them to make lasting changes for their heart health.”

For over 10 years, Tire Kingdom, a division of TBC Corporation, has been a proud supporter of the AHA. In 2016, Tire Kingdom led the Palm Beach County Heart Walk campaign which raised $1.1M for the mission of the American Heart Association, the most money raised in Palm Beach County Heart Walk history. An integral part of TBC and all business units spanning retail, franchise, wholesale, distribution, ecommerce, and corporate shared services is corporate social responsibility (CSR). The company has initiatives that are driven by the company as well as initiatives that are Associate-driven, all communicated to associates via a formalized program called TBC Driven To Give (#TBCDrivenToGive).

League of Women Voters of Palm Beach County Helps 934 Graduating Seniors Register to Vote

League of Women Voters of Palm Beach County Helps 934 Graduating Seniors Register to Vote

(West Palm Beach, FL – June 2, 2022) The League of Women Voters of Palm Beach County (LWVPBC)today announced that the nonprofit, nonpartisan organization has helped nearly a thousand graduating high school seniors to register to vote right after picking up their caps and gowns prior to their graduation ceremonies.

The students were greeted by enthusiastic volunteers from the League who encouraged the future-focused young adults to  register to vote: 934 did—including a record-breaking 259 students from Palm Beach Central High. Due to COVID, this was the first time in three years that the League of Women Voters has been able to offer this service during senior check-out events.

Over a 10 day period, 47 LWVPBC activists—along with six volunteers from the Upsilon Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority—divided into teams that registered graduating seniors from 11 local public high schools, as well as South Tech Academy in Boynton Beach.

“This was our highest number of new voter registrations ever during these senior check-outs, but we’ll be aiming even higher next year,” says Pamela Maldonado of the League’s Voter Services Committee. She also offered special thanks to school administrators and staff who welcomed the volunteers on campus.

“We can always tell when teachers and staff have spoken to students about assuming their responsibility as adult citizens when they graduate,” says LWVPBC Team Leader Germaine Richards. “The students come looking for us, rather than our having to collar them.”

“Of course, now that they are registered, our next job is to get them to turn out and vote,” adds Maldonado. “By encouraging young voters to actually vote, we want to help establish a lifelong habit of voting in every election. 18-29 year-olds constitute the largest demographic group in the country. Low turnout has been the only thing preventing America’s youth from becoming the nation’s most influential voting bloc.” 

And now that this year’s graduation season is over, what is the League’s next project?

“We have begun a campaign to visit eldercare facilities around the county to update ID’s, signatures and addresses for their residents, as well as make sure they are registered for Vote by Mail, if that’s how they vote. We’ll be working on that all summer long,” Maldonado promises.

About the League of Women Voters of Palm Beach County:

The League of Women Voters of Palm Beach County is a nonpartisan political organization of women and men of all ages and backgrounds, encouraging informed and active participation in government through education and advocacy. The League of Women Voters of the United States believes that voting is a fundamental citizen right that must be guaranteed. For more information, please visit www.lwvpbc.org or
