Marco Island Center for the Arts

"A beautifully maintained facility that features diverse collections and galleries. I appreciate the variety of art that goes beyond the usual sunsets and palm trees. They have rotating exhibits and events that bring in fresh perspectives to the art scene. I attended an event that featured a "Tattoos as Art, just Another Canvas" collection which was very unique. The staff members were incredibly welcoming."

"This Art Center is fantastic... Beautiful works of art in oil, acrylic... Photography, film, clay and so much more! All types of classes available at the center and online, with new posts going up all the time... Hopefully the 2nd Tuesday shows will be starting up again soon... Great team, lead by Executive Director Hyla Crane, making this all possible... This should be a regular place for locals and a top 10 things to do for anyone that visits Marco Island..."

"This art center has grown dramatically in the last few years. Marco is home to so many talented artists who now share their art on the island. Many classes are offered to both annual and part time residents. The store is much larger now too and they sell many artists' works. Also look for their fine art shows. There are some unique contributing artists."

"A beautiful place that has so much to offer. The art seems to be made my small local artists. Almost everything can be bought from there so if you're looking for something to spice up your house or a souvenir from vacation I definitely recommend visiting. If you live local it seems like you can rent out studios and take classes here as well if you're looking to improve your skills. It's also free to enter so no worries about and entrance fee."

"We had a wonderful time at the Second Tuesday Artists Reception. We recommend this event, hosted every month by the Marco Island Center for the Arts, to visitors and residents alike. It is a wonderful venue and the organization helps promote all aspects of the arts. The director and staff are highly professional and caring."
