Sunday, January 7, 2018

Time: 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Besides a new year and new opportunities, part of the attraction to festival goers is their ability to casually amble through booths and tents set up under the tall oaks that shade this flower-adorned thoroughfare that's framed by Mediterranean-style buildings housing banks, real estate and stock brokerages, European-style boutiques, high-end jewelry stores, prestigious art galleries and some of the finest ristorantes, bistros and outdoor cafes in all of southwest Florida.

Description: This art festival offers residents and visitors with an alternative to football and a place to walk off calories from holiday overeating. Because of its national ranking and the beautiful weather in southwest Florida during this time of year, Naples National draws some of the finest artists in the country. Last year, 190 national and local artists displayed artworks valued collectively at nearly $15 million in categories ranging from original oils and acrylics on canvas, panel and galvanized aluminum to watercolors on paper, 2D and 3D mixed media, limited edition prints, photography, digital art, metal sculpture, wood carvings, ceramics, hand-crafted jewelry, leather works and more. There's lots of art for every taste and pocketbook, so bring your credit card or checkbook.

In addition to Fifth Avenue's world-renowned bistros and restaurants, there will be plenty of carnival-style food kiosks to sustain hungry patrons.
