Kaleidoscope of kinetic art in Boynton Beach

We usually associate art exhibitions with terms such as “steady,” “quiet” or “still” — but that doesn’t always have to be true. Every two years, the City of Boynton Beach celebrates the art of movement with its International Kinetic Biennial. The event, which brings world-class artists to downtown Boynton Beach, commences this weekend and includes both indoor and outdoor exhibitions, interactive installations, community projects and tons more to do. This is a can’t-miss event, so bring the whole family and let the kinetic art “move” you!

2023 International Kinetic Biennial: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. Downtown Boynton, along E. Ocean Avenue from Northeast 1st St. to Federal Highway. Info: 561-742-6026 or boynton-beach.org/kinetic.

See work by a pair of top-notch artists in Tequesta

Back in the 1980s and early 1990s, Jason Newsted toured the world as the bass guitarist for Metallica. Today, he’s pursuing a decidedly different career as a wildly creative visual artist along with his talented wife and accomplished painter, Nicole Newsted. The two have combined their efforts to create a new exhibition now on display at Lighthouse ArtCenter Gallery, titled “Like Mind,” which in combination presents their distinct styles and fascinating chemistry all at once. Go and see it soon!

“Like Mind”: On display through March 1. Admission is a suggested donation of $5. Lighthouse ArtCenter Gallery, 373 Tequesta Dr., Tequesta. Info: 561-746-3101 or lighthousearts.org.

Opening night of inaugural Ephraim film fest

We’ve all dreamt of attending a film festival opening night complete with red carpets, paparazzi, and velvet ropes — it’s part of the American dream. The Donald M. Ephraim Palm Beach Film Festival opens tonight with a showing of “Two Tickets to Greece” by Marc Fitoussi at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts. The film (in French, with English subtitles) details the relationship of two close female friends who spontaneously take a trip together to Amorgos, Greece. If you can’t make it to the opening, be sure to see any of the festival’s offerings now through February 16.

Opening night of the Donald M. Ephraim Palm Beach Film Festival: 7 p.m. today. Tickets are $60. Cohen Pavilion at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts, 701 Okeechobee Blvd., West Palm Beach. Info: 561-318-0060 or palmbeachfilmfestival.org.
