SUMMARY:Stories in Stone: A Walking Tour of the Maitland Art Center
DESCRIPTION:Step behind the gates of the Maitland Art Center and into a world shaped by vision\, imagination\, and legacy.\nThis one-hour guided tour takes you through the gardens and courtyards of a campus like no other—founded in the 1930s by American artist and architect J. André Smith as a haven for modern experimentation and creative freedom. \nClick here to reserve your tickets>>\nExperience the Tour\nAs your guide leads you through the campus\, you’ll trace the story of Smith’s life—from his childhood in Hong Kong to his service in World War I to the founding of the Maitland Art Center\, which he called “Espero\,” a Spanish word for hope. These experiences—and his Episcopal faith—influenced the extraordinary design of the campus: a blend of Mayan Revival architecture with embedded Christian symbolism and East Asian motifs. The result is a surreal\, immersive environment—at once spiritual\, exotic\, and modern—where over 2\,500 carvings\, sculptures\, and reliefs adorn nearly every surface. \nAlong the way\, you’ll learn about the community of artists who lived and worked here between the 1930s and 1950s—names like Milton Avery\, Ralston Crawford\, and Doris Lee—and how this hidden Florida enclave became one of the state’s most forward-thinking creative centers. \n\nIncluded with the Tour\n\nMaitland Art Center Gallery\nMaitland History Museum\nTelephone Museum\n\nTickets\n\n$4-$6 (includes 3 museums & grounds)\nFree for members\nSuitable for all ages; recommended for ages 13+\n\nClick here to reserve your tickets>>

SUMMARY:Free Curator Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join Chief Curator Dan L. Hess on a guided tour of the exhibition Vilomah by Soude Dadras \nGet your FREE tickets here >> \n\n\n\n  \nThis A&H curator-guided gallery tour offers a deep dive into the current exhibition Vilomah: Against the Natural Order\, from its conception through creation to the decisions that determine its presentation. We’ll begin the evening with a 45-minute tour led by our Chief Curator Dan L. Hess followed by conversation with complimentary food for the rest of the evening! Bring a friend\, a date\, or come by yourself to make new friends who share your interest in the arts. \n  \n\nFor more information about our current exhibition Vilomah: Against the Natural Order: \nSoude Dadras is an artist\, curator\, and educator currently living and working in Atlanta\, Georgia. She was born in Iran and graduated from Islamic Azad University with a bachelor’s degree in Persian Rugs. Dadras was awarded her MFA from the Welch School of Art & Design at Georgia State University in Atlanta. In her solo exhibition\, Vilomah: Against the Natural Order\, Dadras investigates the traumatic sociocultural experiences she encountered firsthand in Iran\, as well the processes and rituals of healing which enabled her to turn her pain into positivity. This unique installation of traditional handwork\, found objects\, video\, abandoned textiles\, and discarded data will seek to centralize disparate voices in this multidisciplinary exhibition. \nThis evening event is presented during our monthly Last Wednesday hours\, when we open our gallery free of charge with a cash bar from 5:30-8pm. Learn more here.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Between Starshine and Clay
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the opening of Between Starshine and Clay\, our newest exhibition\, featuring art by Osa Atoe and Kaabo Clay Collective\, with live music\, a food truck\, and a cash bar on our beautiful National Historic Landmark campus! \n\nClick here to reserve your FREE tickets\nAdmission\, to this event is FREE! However\, donations of any size are gratefully accepted with your order or at the event\, in order to support our many free community programs! \n\nAbout the Exhibition \nClay contains memories. It holds the impression of hands\, the memory of fire\, and the knowledge passed from one generation to the next without always being written down. \nBetween Starshine and Clay: Ceramics Across Diaspora\, Land\, and Lineage opens the 2027 season at the Art & History Museums of Maitland with a major exhibition exploring the enduring legacy of African and African American ceramics through contemporary studio practice. Rooted in themes of diaspora\, memory\, land\, and shared cultural tradition\, the exhibition brings together the work of artist Osa Atoe and the Kaabo Clay Collective in a conversation that moves across continents\, centuries\, and communities. \nAtoe’s work begins with the ground beneath her feet. Her functional vessels and sculptural forms are shaped from locally sourced Florida clay\, drawing equally from the state’s landscape and from traditional Nigerian water vessel forms. These are objects made for communal use\, to be poured from\, passed around a table\, and integrated into the rhythms of everyday life. In honoring pottery as a collective cultural practice\, Atoe connects the contemporary studio to a far longer arc of African craftsmanship and regional identity\, insisting that beauty and utility have never needed to be separate. \nThe Kaabo Clay Collective extends that arc across generations. This section of the exhibition brings together influential elder Black ceramic artists whose contributions have shaped the field\, including Florida-based ceramicists Yvonne Tucker and David Mack\, alongside examples of Afro-Native colonoware that trace the intertwined ceramic histories of African and Indigenous peoples in the American South. In gathering these voices and forms together\, the exhibition acknowledges that artistic lineage is not only inherited\, but also actively tended. \nBetween Starshine and Clay offers a significant contribution to Florida’s cultural landscape and to the broader history of Black ceramics in the United States\, providing a reminder that the knowledge carried in clay is older\, and more resilient\, than any single tradition.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: 100 Years
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the opening of Between Starshine and Clay\, our newest exhibition\, featuring art by founder J. André Smith\, with live music\, a food truck\, and a cash bar on our beautiful National Historic Landmark campus! \n\nClick here to reserve your FREE tickets\nAdmission\, to this event is FREE! However\, donations of any size are gratefully accepted with your order or at the event\, in order to support our many free community programs! \n\nAbout the Exhibition \nA century ago\, an artist followed unpaved roads into the Florida interior. Today\, those roads lead to the Maitland Art Center. \nWhat André Smith found here was not the Florida most visitors knew: there were no crowded coastlines\, no tourist spectacle. Instead\, he discovered an inland world of small towns and quiet villages shaded by stately oaks and towering pines\, of lake-country breezes and unhurried lives lived among cabbage palms and Spanish moss. This simpler\, slower Florida captivated him completely\, inspiring a body of work that marked a sharp departure from his earlier work. Central Florida didn’t just change what Smith painted: it changed how he saw the world. \n100 Years: Jules André Smith and the Sand Roads to Solitude marks one hundred years since that first arrival\, a decade before Smith would find what is today the Maitland Art Center. The exhibition takes its structure from The Sand Roads to Solitude\, his 1951 essay published in Ford Times\, written not as a traveler passing through\, but as someone who had long since made Florida his home. Visitors move through the galleries following the arc of Smith’s own words\, with sketchbooks\, works on paper\, paintings\, and archival material illuminating the landscapes and communities that shaped him. \nAmong the exhibition’s most significant threads is Smith’s sustained attention to Eatonville\, America’s first incorporated Black township\, and to the grove workers and everyday lives of Central Florida’s communities. These encounters shaped his vision as much as the landscape did\, and that relationship is given the space it deserves here. Theatrical vignettes and storytelling elements throughout the galleries bring Smith’s written narrative into the physical space\, deepening the experience beyond the works on view. \nThe exhibition coincides with the theatrical release of André Smith: Espero and the Reasonable Madness\, a documentary by White Ladder Productions\, bringing renewed attention to one of Florida’s most distinctive artistic legacies. \n“These roads lead to the Florida I know. Slow down\, and choose one.” \n— André Smith\, Ford Times\, December 1951
