 The Robert Fontaine Gallery moved onto Worth Avenue in Palm Beach last month after being in the Miami area for 11 years. The Town of Palm Beach persists in attracting a growing flock of major art collectors. Changes in the art world, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, have influenced this migration.

The gallery owner, Robert Fontaine, said the decision to move to 256 Worth Avenue, Palm Beach was somewhat based on the inability to find a space in Miami at a reasonable price.  Fontaine's gallery was in Miami's Wynwood art district for 6 years before moving to Miami Beach in 2017.  Because of the gentrification, it has been difficult for art galleries to find space without being priced out.

Fontaine is happy that the Town of Palm Beach has managed to…

Two adult and four juvenile pelicans were released back into the wild last week by Busch Wildlife Sanctuary.  Busch Wildlife Sanctuary is a wildlife hospital and education center headquartered in the Town of Jupiter since 1983.

For nearly two months, the pelicans were patients at the sanctuary's wildlife hospital. Some had been treated for injuries incurred after they became entangled in fishing gear. The others were treated for exhaustion because of migration.

Hideki Matsuyama made history Sunday, becoming the first Japanese golfer to win a men's golf major championship by winning the 2021 Masters.

Matsuyama, who also won his first major, survived a shaky start, followed by a shaky back nine to hold off the competitions and earn the victory. Coming into the final round with a four-shot lead, Hideki immediately bogeyed the opening hole. Combined with tournament runner-up Will Zalatoris getting off to a birdie-birdie start, Matsuyama headed to the second tee with his four-shot lead having dropped all the way down to a single shot. From there, he settled in and built the lead back up before making the turn.

You know what they always say though, the Masters doesn't start until the back nine on Sunday,…
