The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center, located in the historic federal building in downtown Fort Myers, not only embodies art in the community, but architectural triumph. The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center helped restore this 1933 community treasure, which has neoclassic style columns and walls made of Florida key limestone embedded with coral formations.

In 400 B.C., the Roman philosopher Vitruvius, said the essence of true architecture is permanence, commodity, and delight. Much like "true architecture," true art possesses these qualities and signifies an extraordinary place in our lives that affects us in profound ways.

The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center is proud to support this cause and strives to bring nationally acclaimed artists and performers to Southwest Florida for entertainment and educational outreach programs. Our outreach programs benefit local children and the disadvantaged who would not otherwise have the opportunity or access to experience world-class cultural enrichment at such an intimate level. The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center hosts concerts, art festivals, charity benefits, and gala events to support the arts and local community. By providing a venue for local emerging artists, the Art Center serves as a platform for budding artists to showcase their work.
