Season is in full any of you are just settling
back into life in Naples, no

swing at the NAA! M pun intended, after being
away for the hot summer months. And,
lucky for you, the Naples Art Association
(NAA) spent that time preparing a
packed schedule of art classes and
workshops; exhibitions; special events;
and outdoor shows just for you!
What could make special events even
more special? Celebrating a momentous occasion, of course! The
NAA will host a roaring ‘20s For the Love of Art party to celebrate
its 65th anniversary! Guests dressed in their finest flapper and
gangster attire will be transported to an old-fashioned speakeasy for
this affair complete with delicious cuisine; artist demonstrations; and
live musical performances. Funds raised at this important, annual
gathering ensure that art is accessible for everyone – no matter their
age, physical, mental, or socio-economic ability.
Over 20 rotating exhibitions will be on view from December
through June including the ever-popular National Art Encounter;
the Annual Jade N. Riedel Scholarship Competition; Tiny Art;
and Camera USA® 2019: National Photography Exhibition
and Award. And, new this year are some thought-provoking
exhibitions like Immigration: Does it Matter?; the Human
Trafficking Awareness Partnerships; and the Exhibition of
Artwork by the Foundation for the Developmentally Disabled.
