The Guild members represented here are at diverse stages in their careers\, from emerging voices to dedicated\, long-time practitioners who have sustained a lifelong commitment to artmaking. \nThe Coral Springs Artist Guild is a program of the Coral Springs Museum of Art that brings together dedicated local artiststo exchange ideas and knowledge while nurturing creativity and professional development. Comprised of over 30 members across various generations and backgrounds\, the CSAG provides a platform for thoughtful dialogue\, education\, community building\, and artistic growth. \nExhibition Events \nJuly 16 │6 PM

SUMMARY:Figure/Ground
DESCRIPTION:DeGraaf’s studio practice is deeply informed by the Gestalt principles of perception\, particularly the relationship between figure and ground. Rather than presenting a stable or singular image\, his compositions invite viewers to move between what is seen immediately and what slowly emerges through closer observation. Figures and forms are first constructed through recognizable visual structures\, then gradually deconstructed through overlapping shapes\, interruptions\, and spatial ambiguity. This push and pull across the picture plane challenges the eye to continuously reorganize the image\, creating moments where foreground and background compete\, merge\, or dissolve into one another. In doing so\, the work mirrors the way perception itself functions – constantly searching for meaning\, connection\, and wholeness within fragmented experiences.

SUMMARY:An Exploration of Color
DESCRIPTION:Since childhood\, Sarah Rocca has been captivated by the power of imagery\, the ability to freeze time and preserve memories through the art of painting with light. Her vivid imagination\, once confined to the colorful worlds she envisioned as a child\, found its voice through digital tools. This fusion of creativity and technology allowed Rocca to bring her unique perspective to life and share it with a broader audience. \nRocca’s use of color serves not only as a visual element but as a narrative device. Through her deliberate color choices\, she conveys mood\, emotion and unspoken subtext\, inviting viewers to engage with each piece on a personal level. An Exploration of Color is a visual memoir\, a journey through Rocca’s experiences of love\, divorce\, depression and joy. Each image encourages the viewer to reflect on how color influences their emotions and to interpret the story it tells through their own lens. \nClick here to learn more of the artist – Sarah Rocca.

SUMMARY:Figure/Ground
DESCRIPTION:DeGraaf’s studio practice is deeply informed by the Gestalt principles of perception\, particularly the relationship between figure and ground. Rather than presenting a stable or singular image\, his compositions invite viewers to move between what is seen immediately and what slowly emerges through closer observation. Figures and forms are first constructed through recognizable visual structures\, then gradually deconstructed through overlapping shapes\, interruptions\, and spatial ambiguity. This push and pull across the picture plane challenges the eye to continuously reorganize the image\, creating moments where foreground and background compete\, merge\, or dissolve into one another. In doing so\, the work mirrors the way perception itself functions – constantly searching for meaning\, connection\, and wholeness within fragmented experiences.

SUMMARY:'Unspoken Bond’ Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:When life’s greatest challenges demand more than words can express\, three individuals discover the transformative power of the human-animal bond. \nUnspoken Bond is a feature-length documentary exploring the profound relationship between humans and animals and the ways those connections shape healing\, resilience\, and emotional recovery. Created by Jackie Ducci and directed by Don Hardy\, the film follows individuals whose lives have been transformed through their relationships with animals\, including a combat veteran navigating post-traumatic stress with the support of a service dog\, a trauma survivor building a sanctuary for rescued foxes\, and an equestrian rebuilding her identity after the sudden loss of her Grand Prix horse. Through intimate storytelling\, the film reveals the reciprocal nature of the human-animal bond and challenges audiences to reconsider the role animals play in human well-being\, connection\, and coexistence. \nFOLLOWING THE FILM there will be a Q&A with members of the cast and crew.

SUMMARY:Before Your First Weight Loss Injection: What Every Patient Should Know
DESCRIPTION:Weight-loss injections have become one of the most talked-about health topics in America. With so much information circulating online\, however\, it can be difficult to separate medical facts from social media trends\, unrealistic promises and potentially unsafe advice. \nElite Health Care & Wellness Services invites the South Florida community to attend a physician-led educational workshop presented through its Medical Weight Management Division. The event is designed for adults who are considering weight-loss injections\, have questions about how they work\, or simply want reliable information before deciding whether medical weight management may be appropriate for them. \nThe goal of the workshop is not to pressure participants into beginning treatment. It is to help them make a more informed and responsible decision. \nLicensed medical professionals will explain the potential benefits\, possible risks and common side effects associated with weight-loss injections. Attendees will also learn why these medications do not produce the same results for everyone\, what realistic expectations may look like and why proper medical supervision is essential. \nThe discussion will address important questions\, including: \n• How do weight-loss injections work?\n• Who may be an appropriate candidate?\n• Who may need to consider a different approach?\n• Which medical conditions\, medications or personal health factors may require additional caution?\n• What side effects should patients understand before beginning treatment?\n• Why are proper dosing\, follow-up care\, nutrition and lifestyle support important? \nStarting a weight-loss medication should never be based only on a social media post\, a friend’s experience or a dramatic before-and-after photograph. Every patient has a different medical history\, different health risks and different goals. This workshop offers an opportunity to receive balanced information\, ask questions and better understand the available options before taking the next step. \nThe in-person workshop will be held on Saturday\, August 1\, 2026\, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Elite Health Care\, 345 SW 27th Avenue\, Fort Lauderdale\, FL 33312. \nThe educational workshop itself is offered at no program charge. A small $5 reservation fee\, plus Eventbrite fees\, helps reduce no-shows. Every registered attendee who checks in at the event will receive a $10 gift card. \nSeating is limited\, and advance registration is required. \nFor individuals who live outside the Fort Lauderdale area or are unable to attend in person\, Elite Health Care is also gathering interest for an online educational workshop. \nReserve your seat through Eventbrite: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/before-your-first-weight-loss-injection-what-every-patient-should-know-tickets-1993878202377 \nBefore making an important decision about your health\, take the time to understand the potential benefits\, limitations and risks. Education should always come before the first injection. \nThis event is for educational purposes and does not replace an individualized medical consultation\, diagnosis or treatment recommendation.
