Coming Soon: Spring 2027
New Wave Art Wknd returns with several days of arts programming across West Palm Beach and Palm Beach Island celebrating the vibrancy of South Florida’s cultural community. Distinguished guests will join artists, curators, collectors, and arts professionals for a series of panel discussions, gallery hops, and collector visits — culminating in an exclusive benefit dinner.
The weekend’s dynamic programming, held in partnership with GAVLAK, The Bunker Artspace, The Norton Museum of Art, and the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, among others, is the season’s premiere social art symposia and celebrates New Wave’s year-round Art Residency program.
The shift from Winter to Spring, from its traditional post–Art Basel Miami Beach slot in December, reflects the organization’s ongoing commitment to showcasing Palm Beach as a thriving cultural hub in its own right.
