Fine Art

Webster’s Dictionary defines fine art as 1art (such as painting, sculpture, or music) concerned primarily with the creation of beautiful objects and 2: an activity requiring a fine skill.  One cannot discuss the history of fine art and fine art skill without diving into the life and work of Green Cove Springs native Augusta Savage.

Augusta Savage

Augusta Savage (1892 – 1962) was an American sculptor best known for her work during the Harlem Renaissance. An art teacher as well, she worked with budding artists of her time while also working for equal rights for African Americans in the arts throughout her lifetime.

Please refer to the following resources for more information about her inspirational life and her generational talent that eclipsed all gender and race boundaries of her day.

Clerk's Orange Park Branch is Open

Despite how it may appear , the Clerk of Court’s Orange Park branch office located on Park Avenue (across from Moosehaven) is open.  Our clerks are available there this week despite a major roof replacement project started by the building’s owners this morning.  Customers can enter safely for services but are asked to approach from the left side to access our office’s regular front door location.  Thank you.
