From a sunny day on the beach to the bright lights of Broadway, discover how coastal charm meets world-class theater in Fort Myers.

A mix of live entertainment, classical art and cultural experiences, the arts scene in Southwest Florida is nothing if not unique. But with so many places to see, navigating the area can get a little overwhelming for new visitors.

“In my Fort Myers, there’s an immense synergy of artistry. The people are brilliantly creative, and we’re always striving to bring that out to the community.”

From trendy restaurants to historic homes, there’s plenty to enjoy in the Downtown Fort Myers River District.

Go from enjoying sunny days to watching stars on the stage. Southwest Florida’s cultural scene is thriving, and an evening of art is just the right way to add a fresh perspective to your vacation.

Every story has a beginning, and in the art world, a mural called “An Alternative History of Fort Myers” sparked a movement in 1999.
