An Evening with Thomas Arvid

Thursday, July 16 | 5:30 PM
The Daytona Hotel & Blue Flame

Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating art, wine, food, and the connections that bring people together.

The experience begins at 5:30 PM with a welcome reception and a live painting demonstration by renowned artist Thomas Arvid at The Daytona Hotel. Witness his extraordinary talent firsthand as he transforms a blank canvas into a work of art before your eyes.

Following the live painting experience, guests will be seated at 6:30 PM for an exquisite five-course gourmet dinner prepared by the culinary team at Blue Flame, thoughtfully paired with exceptional wines.

More than a dinner, this evening embodies one of the central themes found throughout Thomas Arvid's work—the meaningful conversations and lasting memories created around the table after the meal is served. Guests will have the rare opportunity to dine alongside Thomas, engage in personal conversation, and hear the stories, inspiration, and experiences behind his iconic paintings.

Whether you are an art collector, wine enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates great company, this intimate event offers a unique chance to connect with Thomas Arvid and fellow guests while sharing an evening designed to be remembered long after the last glass is raised.

Colors of Summer June 5 – August 30, 2025

Summer arrives in a burst: golden light spilling across the water, color saturating everything it touches. At Gallery500, we're welcoming the season with Colors of Summer, an exhibition that celebrates the full spectrum of contemporary fine art and the joy of living with work you love.

Colors of Summer brings together a diverse selection of paintings, photography, and mixed media that span styles, subjects, and sensibilities. From luminous coastal scenes to bold abstractions, from quiet moments in nature to vibrant celebrations of everyday life, this exhibition is an invitation to explore and to find the piece that speaks to you.

More than a single theme or movement, Colors of Summer reflects something we believe deeply: that great art isn't one thing. It's expressive and restrained, familiar and surprising, classical and contemporary, sometimes all at once. This season, we've opened the gallery wide to showcase the breadth of artists we represent and the range of work available to bring into your home or collection.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or simply gallery-curious, we hope Colors of Summer feels like a breath of warm air — welcoming, vibrant, and full of possibility.

Colors of Summer is on view June 5 through August 30. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday 11 AM to 8 PM, Sunday 12 to 6 PM, and Monday by appointment.. Browse available works at gallery500.art or stop by and see them in person at OneDaytona.
