In a city filled with conspicuous landmark buildings\, the โ€œPink Castleโ€ is one of the most distinctive and eccentric. It was built in 1922\, designed by sculptor Charles Adrian Pillars as his own home and studio. Pillars was acknowledged as Floridaโ€™s greatest sculptor and is most renowned for his spectacular bronze winged youth rising above a globe in Jacksonvilleโ€™s Memorial Park. That sculpture is entitled LIFE\, which is also the name of a fascinating new biography by Dr. Wayne Wood. The program will be highlighted by a slide-illustrated lecture on Pillars and the Pink Castle by Dr. Wood\, the Jacksonville Historical Societyโ€™s Historian-at Large\, and includes a balcony concert by renowned violist Marcy Jean Brenner\, the current owner of the house. Seats are limited to 35; masks required. Click here to register.
