Art is what separates us ashuman beings from thedegradation of life. An

incredible rendering or perform-ance of art can lift up our spiritand make living in this worldmuch easier.

While viewing an exhibit ofprimitive artist Clementine Hunterat the New Orleans Museum of Art,a publisher looked at me andasked, “Is this art?” I responded tohim as I do now, art can comefrom anywhere and it is based onone’s own abilities and surround-ings. Ms. Hunter was a child offormer slaves and worked on aplantation in Louisiana. Yet, shecould still create art in her ownway. It made her live easier as wellas those who came to appreciateher primitive paintings.

Fortunately Volusia County hasalways show great support for thearts. It’s the reason we have somany museums, galleries andperformance centers. We couldalways use more, but still it isimportant to appreciate that manyin this area believe in the awe-inspiring ability of art to make usbetter human beings.

In this issue we take a look atsome of that support as well asprovide some tools to help youenjoy the art scene in Volusia. Asalways, Dan Smith provides just alittle different take on the matter.

It’s all about

ArtLife in East Central Florida doesn’t

have center on the beach or NASCARracing. Volusia County has more thana dozen museums to suit a variety ofinterests, with five of them along theeast coast from Ormond Beach toNew Smyrna Beach.

Prominent among them is theMuseum of Arts and Sciences in Day-tona Beach. The 100,000-square-footmuseum, a non-profit organizationstarted in 1955 and chartered by thestate in 1962, sits on 90 acres of Flori-da nature preserve just off South NovaRoad.

The museum houses more than30,000 objects, including the finestcollection of American art in theSoutheast, one of the most significantcollections of Cuban art outside ofthat island nation, a Chinese art col-lection, Florida's prehistoric giantground sloth, a large Coca-Cola andAmericana collection and a rareNapoleonic collection. The MOAScollection also includes a wealth ofhistoric paintings and African arti-facts.

The museum offers a variety of pro-grams throughout the year, such asthose offered in the facility’s auditori-um, planetarium and the Charles andLinda Williams Children's Museum.

“We offer lots and lots of program-ming, with something for everyone,”said Rene Bell Adams, director ofcommunications for the museum.

The programming includes suchevents as gallery talks with staff cura-

tors, historical reenactments, artclasses for school-age children andlaser rock concerts every month. Allthe activities are in addition to theongoing exhibits and exhibits thatcome in for limited runs, Ms. Adamssaid.

The museum is “kind of an ideal”experience for baby boomers, sheadded, since it offers such a wide vari-ety of activities and shows. And thereare a number of ways that adults canvolunteer at the museum, she said.

From running the museum store toleading guided tours, volunteers of allages can help support the museum’sservices and community activities.

“There are a number of opportuni-ties for anyone interested in any-thing,” she said.

MOAS gets a lot of support from thepublic, and has since its inception.

“We get absolutely tremendoussupport from the community,” Ms.Adams said. “The museum is relianton the community, and has been formore than 50 years.”

State and local cultural grants helpcover some of the museum’s ongoingoperating expenses, and MOAS alsohas applied for, and received, a num-ber of cultural grants to help pay forcapital improvements, said JessiSmith, the museum’s grants director.

“We also write to a variety of foun-dations and corporations for grants,”Ms. Smith said. “We try to keep abroad array of funding sources.”

Ms. Adams noted the museum alsohas a sponsorship program in whichindividuals and corporations can helpcover the costs to bring traveling pro-grams to MOAS.

Most of the exhibits and programsare free or at reduced admission toMOAS members. Members also getfree unlimited admission to themuseum, planetarium, children’scenter and the 90-acre nature pre-serve; discounts in the gift shop; invi-tations to major exhibition previewreceptions; and a subscription to thequarterly Arts & Science magazine.Through reciprocal agreements,members also get free general admis-sion to approximately 300 museumsand science centers around theworld.

Individual memberships cost from$20 a year for students to $30 foradults, with adults 65 and over $25.Family memberships are $60, but asenior citizen couple can becomemembers for $40.

Another organization that offersvolunteer opportunities, as well as art

classes on occasion, is the AtlanticCenter for the Arts in New SmyrnaBeach.

While the center’s main focus is onits artists-in-residence program,ACA’s umbrella also covers theAtlantic Center for the Arts at HarrisHouse in Riverside Drive, whereartists stay for the residency program;Arts on Douglas, a commercial artgallery on Douglas Avenue that everymonth features a new show by promi-nent Florida artists; and Images: AFestival of the Arts, a juried art showevery January with more than 200artists displaying their works.Although these programs work close-ly together, each is a separate entity,said Kathryn Peterson, ACA’s market-ing manager.

The artist residency program is a

Museum job is never boring for executive director

Andrew M. Sandall is executive direc-tor of the Museum of Arts and Sciencesin Daytona Beach. Originally from theUnited Kingdom, Mr. Sandall earned amaster’s degree in museum studies fromLeicester University. Before coming toFlorida, he was director of two museumsin New Jersey and held curatorial posi-tions in the United Kingdom.

Q: Tell us a little about your back-ground.

A: I’ve been working in museums forover 20 years, including positions in NewJersey and the United Kingdom. I’vebeen in Florida since 2008, when I beganserving as assistant director of theOrange County Regional History Centerin Orlando.

Q: What made you apply for the jobwith MOAS?

A: It’s such a great museum, with agreat mix of collections. I was in Orlando

at the time, and when I saw the openingadvertised, I jumped at the chance toapply.

Q: You started with MOAS on May 1.What was the transition like in your firstcouple of months?

A: At the end of the first week, weannounced we were building the Brownaddition (the C.C. and Hyatt BrownMuseum of Art). Then, two weeks later,we got the word that FEMA had

approved a ($4.379 million) grant torebuild a portion of the museum thatwas flood damaged in 2008. So I havebeen busy getting things ready for thoseprojects.

I’ve also been getting to know thecommunity and the collections, whichare so diverse. And I’ve been getting toknow our great staff and great board oftrustees.

Q: What changes, if any, would you liketo see happen at MOAS, both near-termand long-term?

A: The rebuilding is the short-termgoal. Long-term, the expansion willmake us more important regionally,because it puts us in a whole new worldof museums. I think we have a chance tobe one of the big destinations in DaytonaBeach.

Q: With the economy being what it is,what kind of pressures does that put onorganizations such as MOAS? Does itaffect community support, or the amountof grant funding MOAS receives?

A: Museums in general, and this onespecifically, have their communities rally

around them in tight times. What is moredifficult is getting grants. They want toknow exactly how the money will bespent, so you have to go through morehoops to prove the need. Grants areharder to get, but they’re still out there ifyou do the right things.

Q: What is the most difficult thingabout running a museum like MOAS?What is the easiest?

A: The most difficult aspect is balanc-ing all the different needs; the needs ofthe visitors and the need to protect deli-cate artifacts. Funding is also more diffi-cult.

The easiest thing is that the job isnever boring. There’s a different chal-lenge every day, so you never have achance to get bored.

Q: Anything you’d like to add?A: We’re trying to get the word out that

while we’re undergoing the constructionprojects for the next 18 to 24 months, themuseum will remain open and operatingas usual. We’re hoping for 18 months, butwe’re sure that by the end of 2014 it willall be done.

Mr. Sandall

As part of its community outreach,ACA offers numerous creative eventsand ongoing programs, which takeplace at ACA’s facilities and at otheracademic and cultural institutionsthroughout Central Florida. Whilemany of the events and programs aredesigned for younger people, the cen-ter occasionally organizes adultcourses for those who wish to honetheir skills or try a new artistic medi-um.

The center also makes extensive useof volunteers.

open to the public,” Ms. Petersonsaid.

And there are a lot of publicevents. ACA’s community programsinclude a popular Children’s Sum-mer Art Camp, exhibitions, Commu-nity Artist in-Residence Events,artist lectures, Images: A Festival forthe Arts, the Annual Poetry Slamand ACA’s Community Day, all ofwhich offer volunteer opportunities.

While it hasn’t been around aslong as the Museum of Arts and Sci-ences in Daytona Beach, theAtlantic Center for the Arts still has athree-decade-plus history.

Doris Leeper, graphic designerHolly Bivins and a corps of dedicat-ed voluteers organized the firstImages art show in 1976. The inter-disciplinary aspect of the first festi-val, held in February 1977, was aprecursor to Leeper's vision for

Atlantic Center for the Arts, anartists-in-residence communityfounded by her later that same year.

From the beginning, ACA hasenjoyed much support from thecommunity, Peterson said.

“It’s been wonderful,” Ms. Peter-son said. “We’re able to offer mostprograms to the community for freeor at a low cost.”

For those wanting a more partici-patory experience and are willing totravel a bit, there’s Gateway Centerfor the Arts on the north side ofDeBary. In addition to a variety ofexhibits, lectures, movies and per-formances, Gateway Center alsooffers an array of arts classes, saidMary Waldroff, the center’s programcoordinator.

“We offer classes in water color-ing, jewelry-making, and a variety ofother classes based on demand,such as pottery classes,” Ms. Wal-droff said.

The classes generally run abouttwo hours one day a week, but can

run to three hours. Most are $15 formembers and $18 for non-mem-bers, but some of the workshops –which range from two days to eightweeks – are considerably moreexpensive. Most of the classes areoffered during the day, but somemight be held in the evening. Andwhile the classes are arts-based,every Wednesday morning a classcalled Introduction to Memoir Writ-ing is presented.

Gateway Center offers a numberof membership plans, whichinclude lower prices for classes andperformances, and discounts in thegift shop. A regular membership is$35 a year or $40 per couple ($30and $35 for couples 65 or older),while family memberships are $40 ayear. High school and college stu-dent memberships are $20 a year.

The center, a community-basednonprofit organization incorporat-ed in 1998, also enjoys good supportfrom the community, Ms. Waldroffsaid.

“We’ve got some people who arejust in love with us,” she said. “It’swonderful.”

The center also uses volunteers totake care of the landscaping andhousekeeping, or answering phonesand doing light office work.

In addition to memberships,admissions and class fees, GatewayCenter also has gotten sponsorshipsfrom corporate donors, includingFlorida Hospital Fish Memorial,Bright House Networks, The RealYellow Pages, the Lacey Foundationin DeLand and White Heart Designsin Deltona. The West Volusia Cham-ber of Commerce meets at the Gate-way Center every Tuesday morning,Ms. Waldroff said.

Like most artistic endeavors,Gateway Center also accepts grantsbestowed by government agencies,such as the Cultural Council of Volu-sia County and the Florida Humani-ties Council. Gateway also pursuesstate and national grants, sheadded.

Not everyone is an aficionado of art.I for one find it a bit bothersome.For most of my life friends and

family have chosen to include me in theirlove for art and sometimes against mywill.

I don't know why but people like todraw my likeness and present it to me.Then, what am I supposed to do with it? Iam not the type of guy who likes to hanglarge pictures of himself on the walls. Nomatter that the renderings of my benefac-tors make me look like the walking deadfrom a Wes Craven movie. I wouldprobably feel the same if their workactually resembled me.

I am fully aware that some folks arecompelled to create something theybelieve to be art and I am just as awarethat when their work is completed theydon't know what to do with it. What arethe rules for an art victim? If you receivesomething a friend or relative has puttheir heart and soul into must we hang itin the living room?

Anyone will tell you that art is subjec-

tive. Trying to create art to please some-one else is dicey business. When someonegives you a piece that you don't care for,where do you put it? If they are chokedwith emotion when they hand it over youare obligated to put it in a hall at the veryleast. If they are moved to tears then youare the proud owner of foyer art. Oncehung the question becomes how longmust you leave it there for all to see? Myplan is to hang it in a prominent placeuntil the donor has made a second visit. Itry to get that over with as quickly aspossible. After the artists second visit , Imove it further back into the house fortwo weeks and after that it goes to abedroom. If I don't get any negativecomments from the artist after a month, it

is banished to the attic or garage. After ayear it can be sold at a garage sale, butonly when its creator is out of town. Beforewarned, some artists will searcharound your digs until they find their babyand put it back in its former place ofhonor. When that happens the whole onemonth process must begin anew.

Artwork that has been purchased foryou is no better. Just because someoneplaced a price tag on a painting does notmake it worthy of hanging on your wall.Remember one of the best selling works ofall time is a painting of five dogs playingpoker. A long time ago I was gifted with aportrait of the devil sitting on the toiletreading a newspaper. This was not a pieceyou might sit on our desk. It was aroundthree feet wide and four feet high and thefact it was on velvet didn't help at all. Irealize some of you may be doubting thisstory but so help me it is the truth. Whatdo you do when an acquaintance spendstheir time and money to shop for art foryou? Do you put the wooden statue of theAfrican pygmy with the exposed genitalson top of the TV? I don't think so.

Luckily as a fisherman and car guy Ireceive a lot of things with those themes.My daughter gifted me with a pair offramed ink drawings of mermaids. I likethose. She also gave me a varnishedcypress stump with a big wooden sharkattached. I think its k itchy. Some friendsgave me a nice framed print of a 1949Chrysler that I once owned. That was nice.Another gave me a good painting of TheOrmond Garage that I treasure. A carbuddy gifted me with a unique painting ofthe Hotel Ormond that I have loaned tothe Ormond Beach Historical Society. Imention these to let you know that my lifeis not entirely void of art. Just not a big fan.

When I was in Paris, I took the obligato-ry trip through the Louvre but there wasso much art there it made my head hurt. Iconsider art an individual thing so don'twrite me letters if you love art. I hear it allthe time. You see, my only son Landan isan art teacher. He obviously didn't get hispassion from me.

Down the HatchSeafood: Luringdiners for decades

It’s a step back in time — to “OldFlorida”. The rough-hewn walls, loadsof comfortable seating, nautical treas-ures and panoramic views of a vermil-lion sun melting into the water, atday’s end, quench a thirsty soul.

And then there’s the menu. FromSmoked Gouda Salmon ($24.95); Trig-ger St. Johns, a chef’s choice featuringbroiled trigger fish topped withparmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, scal-lions and tomatoes ($22.95); SeafoodAu Gratin with shrimp, fish and scal-lops baked with Alfredo sauce, andtopped with melted cheese; to Blackand Bleu Tuna — blackened tunasteak topped with melted bleu cheesesauce ($22.95), the choices alone willentertain you. Eighteen items com-prise just the seafood portion.

All entrees are served with south-ern-style hushpuppies, house salad orcoleslaw, and choice of garlic mashedpotatoes, roasted potatoes, Frenchfries or fresh steamed vegetables.

“Miss Ann’s” Cheesecake ($4.95),Key Lime Pie ($4.95) or Mile HighChocolate Cake ($6.95) will no-doubtcomplete the meal.

The property’s long and interestinghistory is detailed on the website, butthe short version is: Captain FrankTimmons purchased his parents’ fishcamp, Timmons Landing — estab-lished in the 1940s — and opened abar for fishermen. Someone came inone day and said, “Hey, How about afish sandwich?” That questionspawned the present day Down theHatch Restaurant.

Early bird hours are from 11:30 a.m.to 5:30 p.m. A variety of seafood andchicken sandwiches, as well as burg-ers and salads, make up the lunchmenu. Prices start at $8.95.

On a perfect day to mosey we optedto go for lunch. Bluebird skies and acalm Intracoastal were visible fromevery spot in the dining room,through spotless windows, I mightadd.

We started with the “Famous”Smoked Fish Dip and crackers. Twoheaping scoops of smoky-sweet freshfish were served with lemon and aheaping basket of captain’s wafersand saltines. One bite of this “secretrecipe” leads to another and another.

On this warm day my eye wentstraight to the Shrimp Salad. Served ina crisp tortilla bowl, it was loadedwith fresh, plump shrimp, mixedgreens, onion, celery and juicy toma-toes. The house-blend dressing wassmooth and creamy, and the wholething was perfectly tossed, for artful-ly-even distribution, then toppedwith shredded cheese.

When asked what he wants peopleto know about the food at Down theHatch, he didn’t miss a beat.

“Best seafood and steaks any-where,” he said.

His presence in the dining roomobviously wasn’t an isolated incident.He listens to the patrons.

“I used to want to use more spice,but I’ve found that most people prefertheir food more bland so I toned it

He laughed at the memory.“I can do that in Europe but not

here,” he said. “And the shrimp … Iwas buying them right off of theboats, still moving. Customers sentthem back, saying they tasted toofishy. I listened and began buying theshrimp from seafood vendors.”
