The Arts in Downtown Naples

"I dream a lot. I do more painting when I'm not painting. It's in the subconscious."

~Andrew Wyeth

There are so many upcoming events on the calendar for the downtown Naples area, it's almost impossible to keep up with it all! One great site to log onto to get details of what is happening is The Naples Art website. Mark your calendar now for the 2011 Lecture Series schedule. Also, the entire Studio Art Classes and Workshops are also listed on this site! One of mt most favorite events will be held at The von Liebig Art Center is the Non-Juried All Artist Members Show of Shows Exhibit and Members' Gallery Opening Show of the Season! November 6th through November 27th.

The Naples Art Festival season is kicking off its 54th season, [no wonder Naples was named best small art town in the nation] on November 6th with ART IN THE PARK! This is held on Park Street from 10 am to 4 pm and will showcase the von Liebig's member artists! The Naples Fall Fine Art & Craft Festival will be held on November 27th & 28th [see, I told you there's a lot of upcoming events]!

Have a great day,

I AM an artist!

I've wanted to call myself an artist for a long time...saying it outloud is a little terrifying. I hope this blog helps me to 'come out of the closet'--Art has always been my first passion. I want to express myself with that same passion and exuberance that the color red symbolizes. Here's to me shouting from the mountaintops (or in the case of Naples: from the top of the highest penthouse!) "I AM an artist"! I love to paint and create. I love art...all forms of art. I love artsits...all types of artists...and I love the color red!
