Bonnie’s Buzz About Town

It’s been a busy holiday season, but one of the best yet!

Recently I’ve enjoyed taking in the local art scene. The Cultural Council of Palm Beach is spotlighting local talent, and the latest exhibition of local art is by Tony Arruza. He spent five years creating a collection featuring hand-crafted surfboards inlaid with photographs, and no two boards are the same. Catch the wave of creativity by surfing down to 601 Lake Avenue, where the boards are on display until January 21st.

I was very proud to assist in the fundraising for Achilles International, an organization dedicated to enabling people with disabilities to participate in running events across the country. We had a beautiful fundraiser at Mar-A-Lago, and I donated three of my one of a kind items: a leopard and floral scarf from the U.S., an acrylic leopard bracelet from Milan, and a pair of animal print earrings from London. The women could “spot” my style from a mile away!

Art & Style

Even though I’m on island to share my treasures  of clothing and accessories, I embrace everything this enchanting island has to offer. I delight in attending art shows that feature up and coming as well as established artists, learning more about sustainability and local food, listening to lectures on interior design, and watching the fantastic comedy shows.
Recently, Audrey Sterk Gallery  featured art by Kerry Irvine. Her prints are beautiful. Her designs would make amazing scarves that we could all wear.

Finding the Piece to the Puzzle

After coming to Nantucket for twenty summer seasons, I’m proud to be part of the community, and want to give something back to this island. I enjoy taking part in many charitable endeavors to make this magical spot better for everyone who calls this place home.

Walking for a good cause feels like wearing a pair of comfortable shoes. It’s satisfying, and you feel like with every step you’re getting closer to the finish line of finding a cure. It was a beautiful day in Nantucket for the Autism Speaks Walk. I’m proud to march for such a wonderful cause.
