THAT URGE TO CREATE BEAUTY, an urge which will
not be denied, has found fulfillment in the pictures,
sculptures and ceramics which will be shown at the Second
Annual North Palm Beach Art Center Student exhibition,
which opens today and will continue for six days at the
North Palm Beach Country Club.
Located in the old Coun-
try Club section, a preview
viewing for the public will
officially open the show this
evening, from 7 to 10 p.m.
Judging of the exhibit will
be completed earlier in the
afternoon by five judges
from art centers through-
out g
h -
out Palm Beach County.
The show is the winter
and spring semesters work
by students under Edward
Jocomo, Art Director of
the center.
Saturday a clothesline
sale, including works of
artists throughout the
county will begin at 10 a.m.
to 5 p.m. It will be loca-
ted in the parking lot front-
ing the old Country Club.
The exhibition will be
open from 9 a.m. to 9
p.m. daily through June 9.
All those who are ex-
hibiting, incidentally, should
be interested in e taking

Jury Art Society, now in
the process of being for-

PREPARING FOR NPB STUDENT EXHIBIT. Edward Jocomo, Art Director of the
North Palm Beach Art Center, is discussing a student painting by Mrs. Sandra Meyer
which will be on view during the Center's Second Annual Art Exhibit,
LOCAL ART -LOVERS
have reason to be proud of
and enthusiastic about the
highly professional exhibi-
tion of works shown during
the North Palm Beach Art
Center Students' second
annual show, which closed
Tuesday after a successful
six -day run at the North
Palm Beach Country Club.
There was so much to
praise about the exhibition
that it isn't easy to begin.
Most credit, however, must
go to Edward Jacomo, the
center's director and prin-
cipal instructor, who sup-
ervised the whole enter-
prise.
There were winners in
many categories, some of
the works appearing on this
page.
First prize in oils went
to Rita Delillis for her
graphic portrait of a Ja-
maican maican Negro, while Syl-
via Clark's non-objective
oil won in its class. First
prize for sculpture went to
Estelle White's dramatic
"Avenger," an all --metal
creation of a monstrous
bird, poised as though about
to take off in flight, the
whole structure precisely
illustrating the basic theme
--- this truly seemed to be
a monstrous thing bent upon
destruction.
Betty Haseimire won
first prize for her "mixed
media" picture, which had
in it several kinds of mat-
erials, ink, paper, etc., un-
fortunately, however, be-
cause of its dark tone, it
could not be reproduced
here. Dr. Willifred. Muir,
of Lake Worth, won first
prize in the pottery show.
It is expected that all
who exhibited will take part
in the affairs of the just -
forming No Jury Art Soci-
ety, which plans an exhi-
bit in the early Fall and a
Mardi Gras ball Shrove
Tuesday night, a Four Arts
Ball, the theme of which
will be "Tropic Nights."
