W elcome to November! We are already a month and a half past

the hurricane coming to our beautiful Naples and changing
some of our lives forever. We are rebuilding, fixing and back to
some normalcy and readying ourselves for the influx of visitors
and part time residents to come and enjoy our paradise with us. As businesses,
we hope they purchase a “memory” to take with them that will spark special
remembrances of the good times had while here.
One of Naples most charming areas is Crayton Cove which is in the midst
of changes that are intended to improve our community. During this unsettling
time, our stores and restaurants are open and marketing our wares and services
as usual. We are all doing what we can to bring you our best and keep our
quality up while offering the most favorable Old Naples experience we can,
hoping we entice you to come our way when you are looking for a memorable
dining and shopping experience.
Our Crayton Cove restaurants are award winners and some of the best in
Naples. Bleu Provence, Chez Boët, The Dock At Crayton Cove, Napoli on the
Bay, The Boathouse and The Cove Inn Coffee Café are open and serving their
specialties. Our art related businesses have reduced in number but continue to
represent artwork and fine craft by well over 40 artists, most from Southwest
Florida. Phil Fisher Gallery, Random Acts of Art, Naples Ships Store, Earth
& Fire and Guess-Fisher Gallery are open and featuring the fine works of
art they have become known for. We, as the Galleries of Crayton Cove, are
continuing to host our art and music event, “Art After Dark”, which happens
from 6 - 9 p.m. on the second Saturday each month through May and is
November 11, this month. It’s an opportunity to meet the artists and enjoy
live music while viewing their newest works of art. We are a group of galleries
representing professional artists in our community in Old Naples by the Bay, all
within a one-block walk, where 8th Street South meets 12th Avenue South at
the flagpole.
