ARTHUR - INFORMATION FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Sarasota, Florida -- A five-month course for advanced painters, offering instruction by six leading contemporary painters in the United States and Eu- rope, will be offered this year by New College through its Fine Arts Institute. Now in its second year, the New College Fine Arts Institute added to its faculty this year Italian painter Afro, plus New York artists Philip Guston and Larry Rivers. James Brooks and Conrad Marca-Relli are returning for their second year on the faculty. Syd Solomon, a regular member of the New College faculty, also is coordinator of the Institute. The Fine Arts Institute was created by New College as an adjunct to its own program of undergraduate liberal arts and science studies. It was de- veloped to help advanced painters at all age levels by giving them class op- portunities to work with leading figures in the painting world. The Institute operates separately from the college and has its own faculty and studios. New College undergraduates may attend Institute classes if quali- fied, and Fine Arts Institute faculty may be called upon by the college to pre- sent lectures before undergraduates. -more- New College FA! - page 2 Afro, an Italian who uses only a single name to distinguish himself from other artist members of the Basaldella family, had his first one-man show in 1931.

  • Cruise Planners
    Lori Sereikis [email protected] www.cruiseplannerlori.com 352-701-0085 TAMPA, FL OVERVIEW Introduction Tampa Bay, Florida, has much to recommend it: Busch Gardens (which predates Disney World), impressive museums, winning sports teams (Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tampa Bay Rays and Tampa Bay Lightning), fishing charters and one of the country's largest ports, rocking nightlife and a wealth of tourist attractions. Tampa has sharks and rays at the Florida Aquarium and the more lovable manatees at the zoo. At Busch Gardens, you can ride across re-created African plains in a safari truck, stopping to hand-feed roaming giraffes. Or you can go to sea on a fishing charter and try to catch your own wildlife. In Ybor City, the historic Cuban neighborhood, you can amble down brick streets, following your nose to bakeries to buy fragrant loaves of Cuban bread or to shops where tabaqueros hand-roll fine cigars. Lively Spanish conversation might lead you to an old- fashioned domino parlor where grandfathers with gnarled hands gather to play in friendly neighborhood matches. Antiques shops, boutiques and art galleries beckon. After dark, the nightclubs throw open their doors, and Ybor City metamorphoses into a hip nightlife spot. St. Pete (the local name for St. Petersburg, Florida) is only a 30-minute drive away, and the gorgeous Gulf Coast beaches are about a 45-minute drive. The theme parks of Orlando, Florida, are about 90 minutes to the east. Sights—Check out the architecture, shopping and nightlife in Ybor City; spend a day (at least) at Busch Gardens; take in a Broadway musical at the David A.

From the thrill of major league sports to the authentic charm of Tampa’s unique history, the Epicurean is the gateway to exploring one of Florida’s most beloved destinations. With distinctive vibes and cultures emanating from each of the city’s districts, Tampa always surprises visitors with something new to explore and experience. While staying at the Epicurean, guests can expect anything but a generic hotel experience. The hotel’s well-connected Epicurean Hosts give adventurous guests an inside track for finding the area’s genuine and enriching local experiences. From “locals-only” restaurants and hidden shopping gems, to the best bike routes and museum exhibitions, a chat with the Epicurean Hosts will leave guests feeling as if they own the city. Guests don’t have to travel far from the hotel to experience more of Tampa’s premier dining, nightlife and shopping. Directly across the street, the legendary Bern’s Steak House is a destination all its own, where diners can tour the kitchen and wine cellar and pay a visit to the famous Harry Waugh Dessert Room. Bern’s sister restaurant, Haven, thrills foodies with whimsical small plates, housemade charcuterie, cultured artisanal cheeses, crafted cocktails and cellared wine selections.
