Florida Byways: Jules André Smith and the Bok Fellows

Florida Byways: Jules André Smith and the Bok Fellows
January 21 – August 14, 2022
in the Maitland History Museum

While exploring the surrounding byways that weaved throughout Florida, Art Center founder Jules André Smith created watercolors and drawings of parts of Florida that were typically unseen by the casual tourist. His works offer a rare glimpse of everyday life in nearby cities and some of Central Florida’s African American communities in the 1930s and 40s. The group of artists known as The Bok Fellows that wintered at the Art Center also created works inspired by the surrounding areas, which will be featured in this exhibition.
