Art & Jazz on the <strong>Ave</strong>nue<br />
School’s out, schedules have been interrupted, and downtime<br />
seems a little bit more frequent. If you’re looking for a break<br />
from the boredom, look no further than Art & Jazz on the <strong>Ave</strong>nue,<br />
a downtown must since the ‘90s! <strong>July</strong> is Anti-Boredom Month<br />
and is the perfect time to shake things up a bit, even if it’s just for a<br />
night. Who knows, you might get the funky fever and continue the<br />
streak for a few months. After the pandemic, the DDA decided to<br />
move the event around to different downtown neighborhoods, and<br />
this particular event is held on East <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue between Swinton<br />
<strong>Ave</strong>nue and Northeast Fifth <strong>Ave</strong>nue (Federal Highway). Held Wednesday,<br />
<strong>July</strong> 26 from 6 to 9:30 p.m., visitors can expect to enjoy live mural<br />
artists from Emo, Jukes, Craig McInnins and Renata Rodrigues, as well<br />
as live music entertainment from the Mylon Shambles Quartet, The<br />
Flyers, Violet Jefferies Duo, Derek Mac 4 Piece, and Genitta’s Vendetta.<br />
It’s an amazing local event that only happens four times a year, so you<br />
have to be sure to attend and enjoy the opposite of boredom. Arrive<br />
early and enjoy a bite to eat from your favorite local downtown eateries<br />
or stay late and grab a drink before heading home - kidding! Before<br />
heading out to dance the night away, obviously. It’s anti-boredom<br />
month, take it seriously, people. Please visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com<br />

it figured out, and has had it figured out since 1981, look no further<br />
than Sandwiches By The Sea. If you drive by or walk by too<br />

of the freshest sandwiches in town, and in about two minutes flat.<br />
