The commission also approved an $865,000 county grant for Boca Raton’s Center for Arts and Innovation at Tuesday’s meeting. The facility is separate from the tourism master plan, but leaders see it as a additional tool in elevating Palm Beach County’s as an international travel destination.
At The Center, Wonder Works empowers kids, tweens, and teens to explore their curiosity, embrace experimentation, and express themselves creatively. By offering a range of hands-on experiences, Wonder Works nurtures identity, confidence, and adaptability, skills that will prepare young people to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
The next generation faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities. Developing creative confidence is no longer a luxury, it’s essential. Wonder Works gives children the space, tools, and mentorship to invent, imagine, and collaborate, building lifelong creative habits that support problem-solving, resilience, and self-expression.
