We are artists who believe in a simple premise: supporting local artists supports our community. We believe wholly that creativity is a foundation of human spirit, and a healthy sense of creativity reflects a healthy community. As local residents and artists, each of the Side Street Artists artisans are committed to enhancing the availability of locally-created art in our community.

Side Street Artists provides an affordable venue for artists on a monthly basis - bringing visitors and residents together with artists in an easily accessible location - just a side street or two off Bonita Beach!

Our community - the Bonita Springs, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Estero and Naples areas - is a unique community, supported by both tourism and seasonal residents. A sought-after location, known for its beauty, our community is also home to exceptional artists who reflect this area's diverse environments.

Art is a renewable green industry that brings communities together and invites visitors from other areas, which supports a community as a whole. We're proud to call this lovely location home, and awed by the talent that lives here.

Please help us support our local artists by joining us at one of our monthly venues!
