Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens

 

In the early 20th century, a group of Japanese immigrants came to Florida to institute an agricultural community. It didn't succeed, but one of its members, George Morikami, donated 200 acres to honor the effort and his native country. Today, that initial gift has blossomed into an entire cultural complex that features exhibitions on Japanese culture and traditions. A chronicle of the intended farming community can be traced, and visitors may also view artwork, bonsai, domestic artifacts, and crafts. Also on the grounds are a theater, a library, a multi-media center, an authentic tea house, a shop, cafe, and amazing gardens and water features. Classes in traditional crafts and ceremonies are also available.

 

 

 

Boca Raton Museum of Art

The beginnings of this fine museum date back to the 1940s, when a group of culturally-minded residents united their efforts to increase Boca's arts presence. More than 60 years later, the museum resides in an incredible facility in Mizner Park and boasts more than 4000 works in its permanent collection. Modern European and American pieces are prominent, along with pre-Columbian Mesoamerican art, Oceanic items, and western African tribal art. A ceramics collection, an outdoor sculpture garden, and impressive holdings are also available to visitors. A gift shop and changing exhibitions can be found as well.
