Naples Art Institute is thrilled to announce its current exhibition, the Naples Invitational, a biennial survey showcasing the exceptional talent of local contemporary artists from Naples, Florida.

Curated by our Executive Director and Chief Curator Frank Verpoorten, this exhibition features an intergenerational and interdisciplinary group of approximately forty artists, whose dynamic works reflect the complexities and opportunities of the American experience today. The exhibit aims to bring the constellation of local, contemporary artists into focus.  

As a vital cultural hub in Naples, we are dedicated to fostering a thriving artistic community and providing a platform for local artists to showcase their talent. The Naples Invitational is a testament to this commitment, serving as a celebration of Naples' vibrant art scene.

On July 10th, 2023, Naples Art Institute learned the sad news of the passing of one of our incredible Naples Invitational artists, Gail Geary. We offer our condolences to her beloved husband, Dick, and to her family and friends.

In honor of Gail, Naples Art Institute will be dedicating its Naples Invitational exhibition to the artist and her legacy. We want to thank both Gail and her family for allowing us to showcase her talent in this exhibition.
