Art Fest Naples Ranked 16th in Best Fine Art & Design Shows in America

FORT MYERS, Fla. - Aug. 26, 2019 - PRLog -- Art Fest Naples is ranked 16th in Best Fine Art & Design Shows in America in Sunshine Artist Magazine's 2019 list.

"We are extremely excited about the honor of being ranked in the top 20 in the United States," said Taire Malloy, Art Fest Naples executive director. ""We are thankful to the gifted artists who exhibit their work at our show and to everyone who works to make this show a success."

A publication for art and craft show exhibitors, promoters, and patrons, Sunshine Artist's annual list is compiled from votes cast by artists who are asked to list the top 10 most profitable art or craft shows they exhibited at in 2018.  The 200 Best List is based entirely on revenue because, according to Sunshine Artists, it is the most objective indicator of a show's future success.

The annual show held at Fleischmann Park, draws 140 fine artists from around the country.  It is unique because a portion of the proceeds benefits the Meals on Wheels Program of St. Vincent de Paul Naples.
The juried show offers Southwest Florida residents and visitors an opportunity to browse and purchase fine art that includes paintings in oil and acrylic, watercolors, drawings in graphite and pastels, art photography, blown glass, turned wood pieces, sculptures, metal works, ceramics and pottery, fiber art, hand-crafted fine art jewelry and a variety of 2D and 3D mixed media pieces.

The 2020 show will be held Saturday and Sunday, January 18 and 19 and the deadline for artists to apply is October 15, 2019.  Sponsorships are available.
