The Cape Coral Festival of the Arts began humbly in 1985 and has since grown to include nearly 300 juried artists from around the country, attracting over 100,000 visitors each year.
Hosted by the Rotary Club of Cape Coral, this event includes six categories of art: Fine crafts, jewelry, mixed media & graphics, painting, photography and sculpture.
In addition to the art on display and available for purchase, the festival also provides a day of fun for the whole family by including a rock climbing wall and activity center for kids. Visitors can also enjoy a variety of food vendors and local restaurant fare.
