You never know what treasures you’ll find at the Art in Palms silent auction.
If you’re looking for a fun event to attend in an uncommon setting, hop on the Palm Island Transit Ferry and go to the 17th annual Art in the Palms Festival.
“It’s unique because it’s on our island here, which gives it a different ambiance than a street fair,” said Cathy Schwartz, of the Palm Island Estates Association, which sponsors the event. “It has a more ‘islandy’ kind of feel to it—you can hear the music as you come across on the ferry.”
