40th Annual All-Florida Exhibition
This annual show is the most anticipated of the year. As the name suggests, this exhibition features pieces created by artists working in a wide variety of media from all over the 65,000 square miles that make up Florida. The juried entries come together for an award-winning and exciting exhibition representing today’s contemporary Florida artists.
Juror’s Statement:
“It has been an immense honor to serve as a juror for the 40th Annual All Florida Art Exhibition presented by the Alliance of the Arts in Fort Myers. With over 450 submissions spanning a vast range of media, the level of talent and creativity displayed by artists across the state was truly inspiring.
Selecting just 43 pieces for the exhibition was a challenging yet rewarding task, as each submission reflected a unique vision and artistic voice. Throughout the judging process, I focused on not only technical mastery but also the emotional and conceptual depth behind each work. I commend all the artists for their dedication and creativity, whether selected for the exhibition or not. Your contributions enrich our cultural landscape and deserve recognition.

I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Julio Gonzalez Batista for the exceptional organization of this event and to the staff and volunteers at the Alliance for the Arts for their unwavering support of the arts community.”
