FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The Galleria at Fort Lauderdale, recognized as Broward County’s premier shopping destination, will present The Front Porch Project, a new month-long photography portrait exhibit by Michael Murphy chronicling South Florida life during the COVID-19 quarantine. The walk-through retrospective will open on Tuesday, June 9, at 11 a.m. in the space across from Altar’d State, next to Swarovski.

Today marks the official start of hurricane season, and preparation remains the most important step we can take to protect ourselves and our families. We have already seen two named storms, Arthur and Bertha, develop in the Atlantic Ocean, which confirms what many experts predict will be an extremely active season.
