LaBelle Gallery and Cultural Center working for our community.
We are focused on providing opportunities and recognition for all visual, literary and performing member artists. We partner with organizations, galleries, etc. to display and sell member artwork at our gallery and gift shop here in LaBelle as well as across Southwest Florida. One of our largest partners is the Art Council of Southwest Florida. ACSWF Co-op Art Gallery COCO at Coconut Point and Coastland Center in Naples have sales opportunities for AOI members.
About Our Gallery
The Gallery is located at
471 North Lee St. in LaBelle, FL.
Open from September thru May. Hours are Fridays 12 noon-5pm, Saturdays 9am-3pm and Sundays 12noon-5pm.
The Gallery is facing the Caloosahatchee River adjacent to the draw bridge and across the street from Barron Park. It is housed in the historic Christie House built in 1914 and much of the house is still original and might be considered a piece of art itself. A handicap ramp was added recently so that everyone is able to enjoy this LaBelle treasure.
