You can also visit “Artwood Forest”, the realm of imagination, where you can enjoy fun activities for children of all ages.It’s easy to find whatever interests you with the Art Walk programs available wherever you see the blue and black Gallery Group flags. Get the program punched at each gallery and have a chance to win a prize. Flagler Avenue also has dozens of quaint shops and dining options for every budget and taste. On the east we have Florida’s best beach and on the west, the sunsets over the Indian River Lagoon are to die for! There’s plenty of free public parking and, yes, all of this is in easy walking distance along the five blocks from the river to the ocean.
