Duo Beaux Arts This Sunday, March 15 at the Vero Beach Museum of Art , two pianists sit down at a single Steinway and take you from Schubert's aching introspection to the full-tilt exuberance of Chabrier's España , finishing with a graceful transcription of Johann Strauss Jr.’s   Blue Danube Waltz . That's a lot of ground to cover in one sitting, and Duo Beaux Arts covers it beautifully. The concert, titled Kaleidoscope of Expressions ,  is part of VBMA's Chamber Music

If you've never heard a fairy tale told through strings, next Saturday morning at the Vero Beach Museum of Art is a good place to start. The Space Coast Symphony Orchestra returns to VBMA on March 14 with The Princess and the Pea , Hans Christian Andersen's classic, reimagined through violin, viola, and cello, and admission is free! Conductor and Artistic Director Aaron T. Collins narrates the 45-minute performance, part of the Symphony's Once Upon an Orchestra  series.

Fifty-four years and Jesus Christ Superstar still hasn't lost its nerve.

The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center returns to Trinity Episcopal Church on March 25 , and if the last two performances are any indication, tickets will not last! Violinist Benjamin Beilman will be joining CMS mainstays David Finckel (cellist) and Wu Han (pianist) for an evening that moves from Brahms to Shostakovich to Schubert and encompasses a profound range of emotional experiences along the way. The program opens with a piece of musical mischief: Brahms wrot

Vero Beach’s first and oldest cultural treasure has just become the first—and only—to have its story published by Rizzoli , the legendary house behind the world’s most beautiful art and design books. Few places are more deserving than McKee: a once-endangered jungle garden, saved and lovingly restored by this community, now celebrated as one of North America’s great sanctuaries of beauty and imagination. It took a century to grow the story, and this fall the world gets to rea

Every March, the artists of Indian River Clay bring their best work out of the studio and onto the gallery floor. Form + Fire is back for its fourth year, this time at Raw Space Gallery, and 2026 promises to be the strongest yet, with 60 artists and more than 80 pieces spanning functional pottery to full sculptural experimentation — the only rule being that clay has to be the primary material. Local artists from Indian River, St. Lucie, and Martin Counties are joined this

There has never been more to do in Vero Beach. World-class theater. A botanical garden of international renown. A museum in the middle of a $105 million transformation. This is not "Zero Beach," and Vero Beach's "cultural trinity" (McKee Botanical Garden, Vero Beach Museum of Art, and Riverside Theatre) has the programming to prove it. Last week, Let's Talk Vero brought all three together on Riverside's Stark Stage, where Rochelle Wolberg, Brady Roberts, and Jon R. Moses ,

Ballet Vero Beach brings Made in America  to the Leonhardt Auditorium this Saturday, February 28 , with performances at 12pm and 3pm .

Under the direction of Artistic Director Michael Naffziger , their Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) program is beginning to emerge as one of the most impressive public school arts programs in the region. VAPA encompasses five disciplines: theatre

The Indian River Symphonic Association continues its season next Thursday, March 5 , welcoming the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra to Community Church of Vero Beach for an evening that challenges everything you think you know about how an orchestra works. For more than fifty years, Orpheus has operated without a conductor. No baton, no podium, and the intimacy and precision of a chamber ensemble. The New York Times  described it as "smiles born of camaraderie, shared accomplishm
