A Community of Artists Inspired by Sanibel + Captiva Island, Fort Myers, and Southwest Florida
Sanibel Art Colony was founded to elevate the recognition and appreciation of all artists (working in any and all mediums) who share a love for (and connection to) Sanibel Island.
Our mission is to serve as an organizing force providing a deep and inclusive sense of community showcasing the artwork, processes, and personalities of artists who are actively creating art connected to (or inspired by) Sanibel Island (and the surrounding areas) in Southwest Florida.
Sanibel Art Colony Exhibitions
View Sanibel Art Colony’s thoughtfully curated digital exhibitions which showcase work that conveys a compelling cross-section of ideas, media, styles, and perspectives by artists connected to (and/or inspired by) Sanibel + Captiva Island, Fort Myers, and Southwest Florida.
“Sanibel Island is an alluring paradox. A primordial landscape, buzzing with tourists. A tropical hideaway where storybook sunsets heal souls, and violent hurricanes destroy property. A cherished corner of Old Florida, in the midst of a modernizing metamorphosis. Where unfettered wildness thrives, even as ecological challenges mount. A dream place where I can explore the boundaries between coastal textures, the rhythm of nature, and the stuff of humankind; and create art that is honest and authentic.”
