Weekend Family Fun in South Florida
Friday, January 24th
Experience Art in the Great Outdoors at Bonnet House Museum & Gardens!
📅 Through April 27, 2025
Get ready for a whimsical journey through art and nature right in the heart of Fort Lauderdale! The stunning Bonnet House Museum & Gardens, a 35-acre subtropical treasure, is hosting a can’t-miss outdoor exhibition: FOREST FORMS by world-renowned artist Huelani Mei. Running daily from January 11 to April 27, 2025, this enchanting showcase celebrates the natural world through awe-inspiring sculptures.
🌟 What to Expect:
Stroll through the gardens alongside 18 larger-than-life metal sculptures that bring nature’s iconic residents to life. From a majestic fox family to an ethereal peacock, and even a playful snake archway, each piece is crafted in a captivating line-drawing style using powder-coated steel. Ranging from five feet to twenty feet tall, these sculptures combine artistry and imagination, making this exhibit perfect for family outings or solo explorations.
🎨 About the Artist:
Nature lover and artist Huelani Mei starts each masterpiece with a simple sketch, refining her vision through miniature models before creating the grand sculptures you’ll see on display. Her unique “line work” style captures the rhythm and movement of the natural world, reflecting the joy and peace she finds in her outdoor adventures.
This four-month-long exhibition invites you to slow down, connect with nature, and experience a moment of wonder. Whether you’re an art enthusiast or just looking for a magical day out, FOREST FORMS is the perfect blend of culture and creativity!

Community Classroom Project “Pub at the Hub: Back to Our Future”
Saturday, January 25 7PM
Get ready to time-travel back to the raddest decade ever! Community Classroom Project’s (CCP) annual Pub at the Hub is returning with an ’80s-themed bash called “Back to Our Future” on Saturday, January 25th. Held at The Hub at Space of Mind, this event will teleport you straight to the ’80s—complete with a DeLorean onsite for photo opps.
The Heavy Pets will perform a rare tribute set to the ‘80s—covering everything from Bowie and Prince to Madonna and Tears for Fears. Between sets, DJ Johnny Quest will keep the golden days of MTV-inspired tracks going. And since there’s no rule against dancing, you’re encouraged to get Footloose and show off your best moves.
The Hub at Space of Mind will be decked out in a neon explosion with Insta-worthy themed rooms, interactive entertainment, an art sale featuring works from both professional and student artists, a mystery auction, and plenty of 80s pop culture and memorabilia!
Top area chefs will be serving up ’80s-inspired bites like mini sausage sammies in tribute to Abe Froman, the “Sausage King of Chicago,” a Dirty Dancing watermelon salad, the “Marty McFLYBIRD” chicken fried rice, slices of Mystic Pizza and a Baby Ruth dessert bar. You can also grab a bag of classic ’80s candies like Nerds, Fun Dip and Pop Rocks to go.
Guaranteed to take you back to the simpler days of Rubik Cubes and Walkmans, this is everyone’s favorite party of the year! Limited to just 250 guests, it’ll feel like you’ve stumbled into the best Sixteen Candles meets Risky Business house party of 1985.
