🎉 It's Finally HERE 🎉

Join us TONIGHT! for an evening of wonder and discovery in Grand Boulevard Town Center from 6 - 9 p.m. for Dine + Dive, a fusion of fine art, food and wine event igniting all of the senses to benefit the nation’s first Underwater Museum of Art 🌊

🐟The CAA and South Walton Artificial Reef Association (SWARA) are pleased to expand the former Under the Sea event to feature more than a dozen restaurant tasting stations, scores of incredible wines to sample as well as incredible continuous live music from headliner J & The Causeways!

🎨We are excited to offer guests the opportunity to view several of the UMA sculptures before they head to their permanent underwater home, mingle with the artists, sample wines from around the world, as well as taste featured items from popular area restaurants and celebrated Chefs.

🍹There will be a full cash bar on site and all event net proceeds will help fund the sixth deployment of sculptures into the Underwater Museum of Art in 2025 bringing the total number of deployed art works to 53.

We’re thrilled to announce a special collaboration between the Underwater Museum of Art (UMA) and Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation (FCSF)! Spanish artist Antonio Azzato will debut The Menina of the Reef: An Infinite Message—a stunning underwater sculpture symbolizing strength, resilience, and transformation for cancer patients and survivors.

This first-of-its-kind Menina will not only become a living reef but will also hold messages of hope sealed inside as part of a meaningful time capsule.
