June 13–19
During six days, ten renowned artists from across the United States will come together to create and share their vision with the public. Throughout the week, there will be a number of community events, including “Community and Create,” “Night of Music,” and “Subtropic with DJ Max Danger.”
Born in Cannes in 1981, Lucas Beaufort is a French visionary artist-painter. In a recent interview with Luxe Beat Magazine, Lucas offered up some advice to other artists: “Connect with other people as much as you can and open your world to others.” This motto translates to his Art Camp, which he has hosted twice in Nice, France. On June 13 Beaufort will bring Art Camp to Atlantic Beach through collaboration with the Hotel Palms. This week-long experience will host a select group of American artists, who are invited to connect with one another, share their gift, and live like locals while staying in Atlantic Beach.
The artists will come from all over the U.S., including home-grown talent from Jacksonville. During their stay, the artists will partake in an itinerary that features many local businesses. The Art Camp store will be housed in Room 301, where exclusive Art Camp merchandise will be sold. Artists will be creating in the courtyard every day, all week long.
