Boynton Beach
Children's Amphitheater
DESIGN CONCEPT
The City of Boynton Beach enjoys a dynamic mangrove preserve, Mangrove Park, located at 4th Street near the
Intracoastal. With both the park and the surrounding marina playing an important role in the economic vitality
of the beach and downtown, the mangrove tree will be the prominent design element for the amphitheater. This
design element connects the marina to the downtown business district- establishing a 'sense of place'. Other
design elements include 3-D sculptured ceramic mangrove leaves, a shinunering sun made up of colored glass,
blue wave shaped designs also of colored glass, representing the slow water flow founded amongst the
mangroves. Also included are mangrove root designs fabricated from cutout powder coated aluminum that will
be located at the bottom of the tree extended approximately 6 ft. alongside the two adjoining amphitheater
walls.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The goal of this project is to transform the Children's Amphitheater into a make believe environment of a
mangrove tree. This will be accomplished by the following:
· Mangrove branches will be designed using powder-
coated metal in three different colors, flat shaped
and bent to look like tree roots. The roots will
extend from the base of the tree six feet along each
side wall. Each root will be attached few inches away from the wall. The method will be finalized after
the fabricator/engineer gives his specifications. We suggest that the brown root is attached first, the light
green is attached to the brown and the dark green is in the front of the other two. In this manner, the
mangroves roots will be layered and appear to be three dimensional
Tree Trunk:
· A lOft. semi circle mangrove tree trunk will be
fabricated from a 4' x 10' x lI8' perforated sheet of
metal. The metal will be perforated with circle 1/4"
design holes and powder coated in a flat brown
color. The tree trunk will be attached to the stage in
front of the support beam for the stage canopy.

Background Existing Wall
· Blue colored glass will be placed at the top edge of the walls simulating waves to represent water or sky.
· Yellow colored glass will be used for the sun.
· Hand sculpted ceramic mangrove leaves will be randomly placed on the wall.
Maintenance
The only maintenance required is the use of mild soap and water on surfaces for cleaning both ceramic work
and power coated metal on an as needed basis.

ORIGINAL PROPOSAL JUNE 2010
Boynton Beach CRA
Schoolhouse Children's Amphitheater
Public Art Design Project
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The goal of the Schoolhouse Children's Amphitheater public art project is to collaborate with REG Architects to
enhance the Amphitheater structural design and tie it into the CRA's plans for the downtown master plan activating
East Ocean Avenue from the Intracoastal waterway to the City Cultural Campus at Seacrest Boulevard. The
Schoolhouse Children's Amphitheater is being renovated into a more efficient usable space for the community. Its
intended use is an outdoor venue to host such events as concerts, perfoD11ances and movie showings. The design
should also be mindful of the historical 1913 Schoolhouse Children's Museum that shares the Amphitheater grounds.
The public art feature will be fabricated for a set budget while additional enhancements will be considered in the build
costs for the total project.
DESIGN CONCEPT
The City of Boynton Beach enjoys a dynamic mangrove preserve, beginning with Mangrove Park and continuing to
the Promenade Walkway neighboring the Boynton Harbor Marina at the Intracoastal Waterway. With both the park
and the surrounding marina playing an important role in the economic and ecological vitality of Boynton Beach the
team decided to incorporate the mangrove tree as the prominent design element for the Amphitheater. This design
element connects the marina to the downtown city/cultural district and establishes a . sense of place.' Other design
elements, fabricated in mosaic tiles, include a shimmering sun, wave shaped designs, representing the slow water flow
found amongst the mangroves, and 3-D sculpted mangrove leaves. Also included are mangrove root designs
fabricated from cutout powder coated aluminum that will be located at the bottom of the tree flanking the two
adjoining Amphitheater walls. All design elements will be researched and fabricated to insure safety and wind load
compliance.
Mangrove tree concept:
· The mangrove tree trunk will be fabricated with metal that
will be rolled to a curved f0D11. The metal will be
perforated with circle design holes and powder coated in
a flat brown color. The metal tree trunk will be attached
to the stage in front of the support beam for the stage
canopy.
ARTIST CONCEPT
The mangrove tree public art concept incorporated into the
Amphitheater will enhance the structure and connect to Boynton ~
Beach's waterfront and marina areas while complimenting the ~.
1913 Schoolhouse Children's Museum. ~
Rough concept of Mangrove tree public art enhancement.
Tree canopy may be branches as shown or simplified to a
lower mangrove leafy canopy allowing shade structure to
represent sky above mngrove canopy.
.
Mangrove roots will be designed using powder-coated
metal tubing, shaped and bent to look like tree roots. The roots will extend from the base of the tree trunk
along each side wall.
The Mangrove canopy may extend up into and attach to the amphitheater shade structure or be a separate more
leafy structure that is an extension of the tree trunk.
A two foot metal plate extending from the wall will mechanically attach the roots to the stage.

Background wall scene:
. Ceramic mosaic tiles will be placed at the top edge of the walls simulating waves to represent water and sky.
. Additional shimmering yellow mosaics will depict the ever present Florida sun.
. The mosaics will provide the brilliant colors contrasting to the Mangrove's texture during the daytime.
Lighting will be strategically placed to dramatically light these elements at night.
Maintenance
The only maintenance required is the use of mild soap and water on surfaces for cleaning both ceramic work and
power coated metal on an as needed basis.
Additional Sue:e:ested Desie:n Elements
.
Powder coated Aluminum cutouts on the front storage doors panels under the amphitheater stage floor with
images such as:
· Sea grass (varying purple colors).
· Silhouette designs of: birds, shells, flowers, leaves.
