Act identifies as women support organization, however women get mistreated by women at the gallery. Very toxic.

Arts for Act has a unique and diverse collection of art. I was fortunate enough to have some of my original artwork accepted. Really recommend this gallery for its art and its purpose.

The shop is collaboration of artist to get back to the community in the form of women shelters. Lots of unique and unusual designs here! Well worth the trip to go into the shop and just look around the creativity is everywhere.

Arts for ACT Gallery is located at 2265 First Street in the historic downtown River District. They were here since 2001, long before this trendy restaurant and shopping destination was even named the River District. The gallery is in a part of the 103-year-old Arcade Building where Thomas Edison once watched early movies with friends Henry Ford and Harvey Firestone. This building also once contained the Sidney Davis Men's Shop which sold hats to some of Fort Myers' most elite citizens.Arts for ACT Gallery is a contemporary art exhibition gallery selling original art, giclees, hand-crafter fine crafts, jewelry, gourd & fiber art, raku, clay, clothing, and accessories. The genres of art you will see include pop art, surrealism, naïve and primitives, and abstract expressionism. Art is in an array of mediums which include oil, acrylics, watercolor, pen and ink, graphite, mixed media, photography, glass art and art cards. There are multiple rooms of items that would make great gifts for someone special or yourself. I saw necklaces for as little as $10 to items that were priced significantly higher. The 2,200 square feet of the gallery is divided into a main exhibition hall and five smaller rooms in the back. There are over 75 co-op artists and three exhibition spaces, which change monthly. They give a place for artists to exhibit and sell their work.Now only is the gallery supporting the arts but Arts for ACT Gallery is owned by ACT, Inc., the domestic violence, human trafficking and sexual assault center. They serve Lee, Hendry and Glades Counties in Southwest Florida. What an amazing cause to get behind. If you find yourself on First Street in Fort Myers, come check out and support this amazing organization.
