STORE. SANDRA THANK YOU. WE’LL SCROLL THROUGH THE WEST PALM BEACH ART AND DESIGN DISTRICT WITH COCKTAILS AND SOME FOOD DURING AN EVENING ON ANTIQUE ROAD. THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF PALM BEACH COUNTY’S PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, JEREMY W JOHNSON, HERE TO TELL US MORE ABOUT THIS EVENT. JEREMY. SO WHAT CAN WE EXPECT? WELL, GOOD MORNING. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME. THANKS FOR BEING HERE. FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE’RE GOING TO HAVE AN AMAZING EVENING ON SATURDAY NIGHT THE 13TH, WHERE WE ARE GOING TO BE CELEBRATING EVENING ON ANTIQUE ROW, THE MOST FASHIONABLE STREET PARTY IN ALL OF SOUTH FLORIDA. OUR GUESTS WILL BE ABLE TO ENJOY FANTASTIC MERCHANTS AND VENDORS. WE HAVE OVER 40 STORES OPEN THIS YEAR THAT ARE GOING TO BE PARTICIPATING, SO PEOPLE CAN ENJOY THE ANTIQUITIES ON THE ROW. AND OF COURSE, THERE’LL BE FABULOUS FOOD, GREAT PEOPLE, GREAT DRINKS AND SOME WONDERFUL MUSIC AS WELL. SO IT SHOULD BE A FANTASTIC EVENT AND ART AS WELL, CORRECT? ABSOLUTELY. YES, YES. SO TELL US HOW THE HISTORIC SOCIETY IS INVOLVED IN ALL OF THIS. SURE. ABSOLUTELY. WELL, WE WERE INCORPORATED THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF PALM BEACH COUNTY BACK IN 1937. SO WE’VE BEEN COLLECTING AND PRESERVING AND SHARING THE STORIES AND THE ARTIFACTS AND EPHEMERA THAT TELL THE RICH HISTORY AND CULTURAL HERITAGE OF PALM BEACH COUNTY. ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO, WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GREAT PARTNERSHIP TO ALIGN OURSELVES WITH THE ANTIQUE ROAD DISTRICT. OBVIOUSLY, ANTIQUES AND HISTORY SORT OF GO HAND IN HAND. YEAH, AND WE’VE HAD A WONDERFUL RELATIONSHIP AND A GREAT RUN. WE’VE BEEN DOING THIS AS AS MENTIONED, FOR OVER 29 YEARS. SO IT IS A FABULOUS STREET PARTY AND IT’S A GREAT EVENT FOR THE COMMUNITY. SO I HOPE EVERYONE WILL COME ON OUT AND ENJOY. AND IT’S NOT JUST SOMETHING THE COMMUNITY CAN CAN ENJOY, BUT ALSO THERE’S OTHER BENEFITS TO IT AS WELL. ABSOLUTELY, ABSOLUTELY. I’D BE REMISS IF I DIDN’T MENTION THAT IT IS OUR SIGNATURE SPRING FUNDRAISER, AND THE PROCEEDS FROM ANTIQUE ROW HELP TO FUND OUR PROGRAMING IN THE SCHOOLS FOR CHILDREN. WE HAVE A ROBUST PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF PALM BEACH COUNTY, WHERE WE BRING PROGRAMS AND EDUCATION DIRECTLY INTO THE CLASSROOM, AND WE ALSO INVITE THE STUDENTS TO COME OUT TO THE MUSEUM FOR A TOUR OF THE MUSEUM AND LEARN FIRSTHAND FROM AN EXPERIENTIAL PERSPECTIVE ABOUT OUR RICH HISTORY AND CULTURAL HERITAGE. A FUN NIGHT, LIKE WE SAID, WITH COCKTAILS, FOOD, ART, AND THEN ALSO JUST BENEFITING THE COMMUNITY AS WELL AND GETTING IT PLUGGED BACK INTO OUR CHILDREN HERE. ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO ADD, JEREMY? THAT I DIDN’T ASK YOU? NO. THANK YOU. SO MUCH AGAIN FOR HAVING ME. AND I JUST ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO COME OUT AND ENJOY AN AMAZING EVENING ON SATURDAY NIGHT, MEET SOME NEW FRIENDS, HAVE SOME FANTASTIC FOOD AND DRINKS, AND ENJOY SOME OF THE AMAZING MERCHANTS THAT ARE ON ANTIQUE ROW. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE. AND IF YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION
