Island Gallery West celebrated 28 yrs. as a local artists' co-op at 5368 Gulf Dr., Holmes Beach, FL.
Established more than 27 years ago by a small core group of local artists on Florida's Anna Maria Island, our gallery has evolved into a successful artists' cooperative of nearly 30 members. We offer paintings, photography, mixed media, ceramic arts, stained glass, pottery, jewelry, notecards and more. The works of a different artist are featured each month and during the winter season those artists host a reception each month that is free and open to the public. Check our website, www.islandgallerywest.com for the schedule.
The gallery is staffed six days a week by member artists who welcome the opportunity to discuss their art with you. Stop by for a pleasant, relaxing visit and enjoy the many fine works of art on display in two exhibit areas. You’ll discover all the variety and visual stimulation of an art festival in a pleasant gallery setting. Buy American!!
