ArtFest Fort Myers is best known for its annual juried fine art festival, which nurtures the artistic and cultural environment of our entire community.

We are excited to announce the addition of an all-new premier holiday event – Holiday Art Market. This will be the holiday shopping destination for unique handmade gifts.

Some information on ArtFest Fort Myers –On the first weekend in February 55,000 people come to the riverfront in downtown Fort Myers and enjoy the special opportunities the festival provides:

• meeting visual artists from across the country and around the world,
• sampling fun cuisine,
• visiting special exhibits and artist demonstrations, and
• entertaining their families with interactive art activities and performing arts.
  

ArtFest Fort Myers also supports arts in education through art education and outreach programs.

Community Art Showcase at Harborside Event Center continues ArtFest Fort Myers’ influence in the visual arts on a year-round basis.

As a not-for-profit organization, ArtFest Fort Myers relies on support from grants, sponsorships, artist and food vendor entry fees, beverage sales, and festival T-shirt sales to fund the art festival and outreach programs.
