This was the 2010 ArtFest Advertising Campaign

This page is dedicated to showing our artists how we promote ArtFest Fort Myers. To create the largest buying crowd possible. We make sure that we establish connections with every media outlet in the Southwest Florida area. We fill the pages of local news papers, magazines and billboards. We partner with local hotels who offer ArtFest Fort Myers packages during that weekend that include VIP tickets to the event.

2009's attendance was record-breaking at 60,000 patrons. Attendees purchased artwork at levels that will bring the artists back and increase future applications - the keys to a great art festival.

The 2010 Marketing Campaign is valued at $150,000 and will create over 5 million impressions in a 3 week period.

This dynamic and effective campaign was made possible by the generous support of all our Media Partners and the Tourist Development Council Marketing Grant.
