Whether you’re a serious art lover or a casual collector, ArtFest Fort Myers is the perfect place to connect in the art world.
Meet the Artists in person
As a juried art festival, we are choosy about the artists who come to ArtFest Fort Myers. Only 1 in 5 artists who apply are invited to exhibit here, and they hail from dozens of states across the U.S. ArtFest is an artist’s and art lover’s destination — right here in Fort Myers.
Visit the Online Art Gallery and browse some quality work at this year’s ArtFest. And make plans to chat with our artists, up close and in person, as you discover beautiful, handcrafted pieces in every booth.
Add to a favorite collection, or begin with your first art purchase. You’ll find a treasure to call your own, regardless of your age and budget.
What does it mean
to be a Juried Art Festival?
- Artists apply by submitting digital images of their artwork and booth display.
- A five-member panel of art professionals reviews and scores all entries. ArtFest staff members are not involved in the selection process — it is done exclusively by the panel.
- The artists whose entries score highest in each category are invited to exhibit at ArtFest Fort Myers.
- Artists are selected based on the quality of workmanship, originality, and artistic conception, to create a balanced and diverse show. All work must be created solely by the exhibiting artists.
- Juried art festivals work hard to maintain each event's quality and professional integrity. Exhibitors considered "importers" and "production houses" are not allowed to exhibit
