The Fort Myers Beach Art Association will be holding its first art bazaar since before Hurricane Ian, at an event scheduled for March 16 at Santini Marina Plaza on Fort Myers Beach.

The bazaar, or clothesline sale, “will raise funds for our student programs,” Fort Myers Beach Art Association member Michele Buelow said. “They were held on our lawn (at the old gallery), once on the library lawn, and at Santini Marina Plaza. Now that things are getting back to the new normal, we are holding the event at the plaza once again.”

The bazaar will feature works from Fort Myers Beach Art Association artists from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the sidewalk in front of the stores at the plaza.

Artists will be selling original artwork, both framed and unframed, as well as some cards.

“Commissions will go to our student programs such as the Student Scholarship Awards given this month to seniors at Cypress Lake Center for the Arts,” Buelow said.

“This sale will be a great way to replace art that was taken by the hurricane. The art will be beautiful any varied.”
