Boca Raton Museum of Art


In Mizner Park, this elegant museum showcases the minor works of modern masters such as Picasso, Chagall and Modigliani (note: these may rotate). It also has a genuinely worthwhile collection of pieces by 20th- and 21st-century American and European painters, sculptors and photographers. Regular exhibitions to boot.

It's open until 8pm on Thursdays.
