The campus includes two museum buildings, the Roji-en Japanese Gardens: Garden of the Drops of Dew, a bonsai garden, library, gift shop, and a Japanese restaurant, called the Cornell Cafe, which has been featured on the Food Network. Rotating exhibits are displayed in both buildings, and demonstrations, including tea ceremonies and classes, are held in the main building. Traditional Japanese festivals are celebrated several times a year.

The Roji-en Japanese Gardens were designed to complement the museum. The six gardens making up Roji-en are inspired by famous garden styles throughout Japan’s history. They were designed by Hoichi Kurisu and completed in 2001. The six historical gardens are as follows: Shinden Garden, Paradise Garden, Early Rock Garden, Karesansui Garden, Hiraniwa Garden, and Modern Romantic Garden.

Duncan Theatre, Lake Worth Florida

The Duncan Theater, located on the Lake Worth campus of Palm Beach State College, has been a cultural touchstone and arts anchor of the community since its inception in 1986, six years before the Kravis Center raised its first curtain. The theater is named for a former literature instructor at the college, Watson B. Duncan III, who headed the English Department and was a mentor to Burt Reynolds, one of his students.

Presenting more than 300 shows a year, the theater comprises two venues: the 122-seat Stage West, which often screens films, and the larger theater, the 700-seat Continental-style seating venue. Both theatres have undergone renovations, including new seats, new paint and floors, and new grand curtains. Since the early days, the theater functioned as an oasis of high-quality, cutting-edge, modern dance, contemporary music and chamber opera, all offered at affordable prices.
