| Mod 27 Cuillo Centre |
Sat., June 23 more dates/times |

| OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies Lake Worth Playhouse | Every week Saturday | Central Palm | |
The name Hubert Bonisseur de la Bath doesnt quite ring so harmonically as the much brawnier-sounding James Bond. That and his even clunkier French secret agent code name goes with the territory in director Michel Hazanavicius espionage spy parody, OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies.... More >> |

| “Art for Peace” Palm Beach Community College Eissey Campus | Daily | Central Palm | |
While most art we view daily is spray-painted graffiti by world-renowned masters like “Biatsch” and “Neckface” (though it should be said, we love Neckface), one local group is showing the world what painters can do with a more traditional medium: the canvas.

| Splash Island at the Rapids Rapids Water Park | Daily | Central Palm | |
There’s absolutely nothing embarrassing about being a 26-year-old man who rides waterslides.

| YouTube Thursdays Mr. G's Rock 'n Roll Bar and Grill | Every week Thursday | Central Palm | |
| This is the kind of thing that doomed the Roman Empire. There was a time, not long ago, when the knowledge of all the dumb things you did at the club was reserved for fellow travelers.
