Here’s an easy way to inundate all five of your senses with some fun and culture at the same time. During the Art After Dark series, the Norton Museum of Art (1451 S. Olive Ave., West Palm Beach) ups the art quotient by about 300% when it opens its doors from 5 to 9 p.m. In addition to perusing the usual visual art collections at the museum, you can hear the Jazz Harp Trio perform live, watch the award winning PBS documentary ART21, scarf down food and drinks, and create your own art. If you dress in a Halloween costume, you save a dollar on admission while being part of an interactive art display – provided you consider people dressed like zombies, princesses, and naughty policepersons art. Or there’s always being mocked for your lack of bravado and creativity by showing up in your civvies. Admission is free to members, $8 for adults, $3 for teenagers, and free for anyone under 12.
