Page 5 - FORT LAUDERDALE

Live music flourishes at spots around the
city like Brew Next Door and concert venue
America’s Backyard. And Fort Lauderdale’s
nightlife lives up to its reputation, thanks to a
selection of sophisticated venues — rooftop
bars like the Sparrow and Hide Tide, as well as
fun spots like Pirate Republic.
Revitalization efforts are underway around
Historic Sistrunk, Fort Lauderdale’s oldest
African-American community. The arts and
culture scene in Fort Lauderdale is thriving
with a vibrant community of creators and
the city has seen a boom in the visual arts,
buoyed by an active calendar of events. There
are family-friendly activities like Las Olas Art
Fairs, F.A.T. Village Art Walks and Sunday Jazz
Brunches along Riverwalk. More glamorous
experiences include Art Fort Lauderdale,
where you can take water taxis to several
luxurious waterfront properties featuring
curated art exhibitions.
On Las Olas Boulevard, don’t miss
the now iconic monumental sculpture
by Daniel Popper, featuring a fern-laden
alcove hollowed beneath a fairy-tale giant.
Grand, eccentric and magical, the artwork
is very much like the city it calls home — as
Fort Lauderdale never fails to delight and
surprise.

▾ The Hive, located in ▸ The "Thrive"
Flagler Village, is an iconic sculpture at
development with unique Society Las
shops, bars and eateries. Olas.
