As you may know, the storm surges from Hurricanes Helene and Milton have impacted our Art Center building, much like many others in our island community. We hope this message finds you safe and that, like us, you are on the road to recovery.

Our Mission

The mission of the nonprofit Boca Grande Art Center (BGAC) is to promote education and awareness of the visual arts and enhance the cultural opportunities in the community.

Celebrate 35 Years of Art

The Boca Grande Art Alliance was founded in 1986 by a small group of talented artists living in Boca Grande, Florida, looking for a place to show their work to residents and visitors. Today, we are much more than an alliance of local artists. We invite you to read more about our history and learn how we became the center for visual arts here on the island.

Please share and if you’re able, please donate.Like many island organizations, the Art Center did not carry flood insurance and although some of our equipment was spared, we will need to replace so many art supplies art equipment and office equipment. I, along with my board of directors, are working hard on our recovery. We are committed to bringing back our Boca Grande Art Center and it’s art program to our community. We appreciate your generous support. #BocaGrandeStrong Please share this post. #bocagrandeflorida

Unfortunately we are under another level of recovery due to the 2nd storm Milton surging into our Art Center. The buildings are marked “closed until further notice” from Lee County. We were able to retrieve our equipment that was salvageable from Helene, before Milton hit. We hope to have updates soon about our Art Center and it’s program.You may keep up with us via our website until then. bocagrandeartcenter.orgWe are committed to returning with a beautiful art program on the other side of this. Until then we are #BOCAGRANDESTRONG
