Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens will serve as a satellite venue for the fair and will showcase “Old Friends,” an exhibition by artist in residence, sculptor Jane Manus. Renowned for her bold geometric forms and industrial materials, Manus creates dynamic, large-scale abstract works that embody a sense of movement and modernist precision.

American artist Alex Katz will also debut a special exhibition, “Portraits and Landscapes – Through the Seasons,” presented by Sponder Gallery. The show will open on March 19 during An Evening of Music & Art in the Gardens at Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, showcasing works that highlight his explorations of beauty, nature, and the human figure.

Additionally, Lighthouse ArtCenter will unveil works by Tyler K. Smith, a New York-based multidisciplinary artist, set designer, exhibit designer, and educator in the VIP Lounge. Lighthouse ArtCenter will present a corresponding talk between Smith and Bruce Helander on March 22.

A complimentary shuttle between the fair and Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens will be available to guests during fair hours.

PBM+C 2025 will coincide with the Palm Beach International Boat Show, returning to the downtown West Palm Beach waterfront. PBM+C VIP cardholders will receive complimentary one-day admission to the boat show.
