Dunedin Fine Art Center’s Garden Party
“Still the One!,” the 41st annual Garden Party to benefit the Dunedin Fine Art Center, honored modern fine artist Christopher
Still and his brother Todd Still, the center’s youth education director, in recognition of their achievements in the arts and their
contributions to the community. This year’s Garden Party, held at the Dunedin Golf Club overlooking its tree studded, awardwinning
Donald Ross Golf Course, was a hybrid event due to COVID-19. It was attended by sponsors, who enjoyed food and drinks
prepared by the club’s chefs and bartenders and music by Ray Olan & Jazz Olé before being invited to move out onto the patio,
where they were joined virtually by online attendees for a live auction and to watch the golf putting competition. The Dunedin
Fine Art Center’s goal is to provide unparalleled educational, cultural and creative experiences in the visual arts.
