Von Liebig Art Center

The Von Liebig Art Center of Naples, Florida exists to promote education, culture, and artistic awareness. The Naples Art Association was founded in 1954. Two years later the members were working with the community to offer exhibits. Finally in 1992 a building along with education programs were added to form the Von Liebig Art Center. Prior to this time schools and outdoor venues were used. The center leases space from the Naples City Council in an 8,000 square foot section of public park. The amount spent on the building at the park was $3.5 million in order to ensure the center would be state of the art and to acquire more works of American art.

The center focuses mainly on Florida art, though the exhibits do change to include other American states. The exhibits are free and open to the public. The facility is open seven days a week during day hours. The education programs are non-credit options that help to enrich a person's life rather than add to their education credits. The organization is supported by an endowment fund that was established in 1999 to help sustain the operations it has had for more than fifty years.
