History The Art League of Fort Myers was organized in 1956, and has been in continuous operation since then. 2011 marked our 55th year.
From 1974 through 1992, the Art League of Fort Myers was located on Crawford Street. In September of 1992 the Art League of Fort Myers moved into the "Old Schultz Farm House" at the corner of Colonial and McGregor and was used as the studio gallery space until the building was demolished when the construction of the Midpoint Bridge ensued. The "Edwards Building" was moved to replace the Schultz home shortly thereafter. That was the location that housed the Art League of Fort Myers until the move to the downtown area at its current location in the Heart of the River District parking garage building at 1451 Monroe Street, between Bay and First Street. |
