Innholdsfortegnelse for March 2016 i Palm Beach Illustrated

Last year, a friend and fellow magazine publisher launched a new title in the Palm Beaches called Bubble. The name, in part, refers to the seasonal state of bliss we enjoy in this wonderful tropical bubble of Palm Beach. Even if El Niño has delivered an extra-large dose of precipitation to South Florida this year, it’s still better than watching snow drifts pile up. Our annual visitors have been packing the stores on Worth Avenue, the golf courses at PGA, and restaurants all over town in the name of well-deserved vacation time. For the locals, however, daily business surges ahead unabated. The March issue of Palm Beach Illustrated is historically one of our largest in both editorial and advertising content. As I write this just days before press, the phones…

A new star is taking up permanent residence at the Kravis Center. A custom-designed Marshall & Ogletree Opus 11 Digital Organ will make its debut March 9 with an inaugural performance by world-renowned organist Cameron Carpenter (pictured above) and the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra. An organ was originally part of the master plan for the Kravis Center’s concert hall but was eliminated early on. Now, more than 20 years after the Kravis first opened its doors, this spectacular organ is coming home thanks to a donation by Alexander Dreyfoos. Named the George W. Mergens Memorial Organ in honor of Dreyfoos’ late business partner and friend, the organ features five manuals (keyboards), more than 200 stops, and 96 audio channels and will be used for performances in the concert hall and the…

GARDEN GURU Jason “Farmer Jay” McCobb knows his way around a garden. An expert in sustainable agriculture, McCobb divides his time tending to his three-acre farm in Lake Worth, designing herb gardens for his restaurant clients, and teaching kids about sustainable practices through his Jr. Sprouts program. Here, he shares a few tips. Farmer Jay Pure Organics, Lake Worth (561-396-0210, myfarmerjay.com) Location: Gardens should be a part of our everyday, not in the back corner of the yard out of sight. Ideally, you should be able to slip out in your socks to trim some basil Sunlight: Consistent southern exposure is best for berries, fruits, and summer vegetables. Leaf and root vegetables are more tolerant of the shade. Water: Irrigate regularly but don’t overwater or you’ll attract bugs. Get a…

I recently went to India with my family, where we worked with small schools through the Tripura Foundation and its Hope Learning Centers. A small gift of time is as powerful as money. First job: I tried to make extra money at a theme park by dressing up in a character costume, but it was 102 degrees outside. I got a terrible migraine—and my mascot career ended abruptly.

It’s only natural to want to be outdoors in South Florida, which is why the PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach Gardens has transformed its expansive lobby terrace into iDeck, an alfresco evening lounge. Overlooking the resort’s glowing pool, the 2,000-square-foot space is outfitted with a mix of high tables and lounge seating, all warmed by sleek fire pits and curvy heating lamps that resemble oversized table lamps.

Every so often, a sensational headline about famous pets grabs the spotlight: hotel magnate Leona Helmsley’s $12 million trust for her dog, Trouble, for example, or fashion designer Alexander McQueen’s bequest of $82,000 for the care of his three pooches. Tales of excess aside, for many, a beloved pet is a faithful companion that owners want to ensure is properly cared for in the event of their death. Choosing the best method to accomplish this depends on how legally binding you want the arrangement to be. Once you’ve identified a potential caregiver, you have three options for drafting an agreement. Attorney Julie A. Calligaro, author of Estate Planning for Pet Owners, walks us through your choices. 1 LETTER OF INSTRUCTION This is the most informal of the three documents, says…

The birth of Modernism had far-reaching effects, especially for artists who were using imagery rather than illusionism to reflect their ideas and emotions. New York was a hub for Modernist artists and, between 1910 and 1935, it was home to Georgia O’Keeffe, Florine Stettheimer, Helen Torr, and Marguerite Zorach. Through May 15, the Norton Museum of Art explores the output of these friends and colleagues in “O’Keeffe, Stettheimer, Torr, Zorach: Women Modernists in New York.” The exhibition examines these iconic artists, showcasing 65 of their paintings, textiles, and works on paper, including O’Keeffe’s Jack-in-the Pulpit series, Stetthimer’s colorful oils, Torr’s self-portraits, and Zorach’s nudes.

Living in a place like Palm Beach, it’s easy to get a skewed view of what beauty is. Every day, we’re immersed in gorgeous nature and surrounded by dazzling objects and beautiful people—but the physical reality sometimes obscures the true meaning of beauty. The writer Kahlil Gibran once said, “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.” That light—a rare combination of kindness, strength, and grace—is the quality we sought when searching for this year’s Palm Beach Beauties. From dozens of nominations, we narrowed the field and let our readers do the rest. The five women who received the most reader votes in our online search are presented on page 88. The beauty these women possess is more than skin deep. Each has conquered her…

NUTS: A no-brainer for raw-vegan devotees, nuts can be transformed into milk and cheeses and can also serve as the base for hearty entrees like vegan tacos. Store nuts in the fridge to extend their shelf life. NUTRITIONAL YEAST: Commonly used to make vegan cheeses, nutritional yeast (such as Bob’s Red Mill Large Flake Nutritional Food Yeast) can also be sprinkled on salads and popcorn to imbue a cheesy taste. OILS: For an easy salad dressing, opt for cold-pressed oils like coconut oil, olive oil, and seed oils like hemp, grape, and sesame. Raw apple cider vinegar is also great for salads and a variety of recipes SWEETENERS: Forgo refined sugar in favor of natural sweeteners like raw honey, dates, and agave. Wholesome Organic Raw Blue Agave is a good…

In honor of 70 years of artistry in motion, the Limón Dance Company is dancing around the world and will perform at the Duncan Theatre in Lake Worth on March 18 and 19. A pioneer of modern dance, Mexican-born José Limón dominated the genre with a pantherine grace and a herculean stage presence. Limón formed his namesake troupe in 1946 and went on to tour, teach, and choreograph innovative works including his swan song, The Moor’s Pavane, inspired by William Shakespeare’s Othello. The company will perform Pavane as well as Mazurkas and The Winged, two masterpieces of contemporary movement. Tickets cost $39. (561-868-3309, duncantheatre.org)…

3 MUSTDOS: After dinner, linger in the Living Room for hot cocoa and conversation. If you’re lucky, Dan Matthews may lead a singalong on his grandfather’s player piano. Sit on the front porch and watch the hummingbirds gather around the feeders and nectar plants. Take part in one of the educational talks in The Swag library. The experts leading the hikes offer wonderful interactive programs. It’s just after 7 in the evening, and the sun is about to descend behind the steelgray mountain range in the distance. The clouds have settled among the peaks, and a chill needles the air around the private resort that sits 5,000 feet above sea level. A white-haired gentleman wearing a tweed sport coat walks across the great lawn and greets his guests, who are…

Hilary Weston recalls walking into London’s Michael Werner Gallery and stopping dead in her tracks, mesmerized by a piece of artwork. “I suddenly saw this amazing picture on the wall, and I couldn’t concentrate on what I had set out to do,” she says with an Irish accent. “I just kept looking at this dramatic painting, and I said, ‘Who is that? I’ve never seen this artist’s work before.’” The painter, she learned, was Per Kirkeby, a multidisciplinary Danish artist known for his bold-colored paintings, abstract sculptures, and beautiful poetry. And that unforgettable moment in London a couple years ago was all it took to make her a fan for life. A former model from Dublin, Weston began collecting art in her early 20s, an interest that stemmed from her…

DILLINGER When Sean Iglehart opened Boynton Beach’s Sweetwater Bar & Grill in 2011, he helped spawn a craft cocktail movement to rival Miami’s most notorious watering holes. While travel and cuisine are his libation muses, the Delray native often looks to classic cocktails for inspiration, and the Dillinger is a good example. A nod to the quintessential Tom Collins, the drink also evokes a Greek salad with hints of dill, lime, and cucumber. “It isn’t our most avant-garde cocktail, but it is an everyday crowd pleaser,” Iglehart says. (561-509-9277, sweetwater33.com) Dillinger 2 oz. Nolet’s dry gin ¾ oz. fresh lime juice ¾ oz. simple syrup 2-3 slices of English cucumber 1-2 sprigs of fresh dill Sparkling water and ice To make simple syrup, heat 1 cup of water and 2…
