Just as Naples is blessed with theatrical and musical treasures, so it offers visitors a boutique collection of intriguing museums.

Art at the ‘Phil’
In fact, adjoining the Naples Philharmonic Center, is the delightful Naples Art Museum. Their mission is “to be a visual arts center for people of all ages and backgrounds, to reflect the varied interests and wishes – and to nourish the soul – of our community.” The museum’s visual arts center includes a three-story, 30,000-square-foot museum with 15 galleries, a glass dome conservatory, entrance gates by renowned metal artist Albert Paley, spectacular chandeliers and a Persian ceiling by acclaimed glass artist Dale Chihuly, a resource room and the Museum Store.

The Von Liebig Art Center
The beautiful Von Liebig Art Center is a jewel of old Naples. In May 1998, the Naples Art Association announced the formation of a collection in order to exhibit and interpret the work of American artists from 1950 forward who exhibit periodically at The von Liebig Art Center and on loan to other venues. The purpose of this collection is to increase public awareness and appreciation of the artistic legacy of this unique region of Florida. Of special note is the inclusion of work by Grace Lake, George Rogers and Elsie Dorey Upham who founded the Naples Art Association in 1954.
