There’s So Much Happening at the Boca Raton Public Library

Boca Public Library’s Art Exhibit, “The Beauty of Boca,”

By Lena Belyaeva, Runs Through November 30th

The Boca Raton
Public Library presents
a new art exhibit, “The
Beauty of Boca,”
by Lena Belyaeva.
Visitors to the Art in
Public Places area of
the Downtown Library
will be entranced by
Belyaeva’s colorful
artwork showcasing
her favorite landmarks
and landscapes of Boca Raton.
Belyaeva was born in Ukraine and was deeply inspired
by the beauty of Boca when she arrived in South Florida.
Knowing little English at first, she sought an alternate way
to share her impressions of Boca’s Spanish architecture,
lovely beaches and elegant floral landscapes with others. She
started filling albums with detailed drawings and sketches
of the places and people in her new hometown. When her
artwork was posted on Instagram, it caught the attention of
people from all over the world. Since then, Belyaeva has
collaborated with Downtown Boca in creating illustrations
for the 2020 town calendar, a Mizner Park Amphitheater
poster, and the cover for the Downtown Report Plan. She
has also been invited to many art events and commissioned “The Beauty of Boca,” a free exhibit, will run through
by local businesses to create numerous designs, illustrations November 30th at the Downtown Library, 400 NW 2nd
and maps. Belyaeva continues to capture the beauty of the Avenue. It is open during regular library hours.
city by painting in watercolors and oils in the hope that each
illustration will bring warm memories and inspiration to
viewers.
