The inaugural 2012 ArtsNaples World Festival celebrated all things Russian and was a resounding success. It delivered memorable performances, bold programming, educational outreach, and touched the lives of over eleven thousand people. The 2013 Festival builds on this

innovative foundation and celebrates the rich heritage of the Latin Americas’ and Hispanic cultures.

During the Festival, you will experience an exhilarating array of performances, expanded cultural partnerships, and exceptional special events. ArtsNaples showcases the amazing variety of cultural organizations in Southwest Florida and brings international talent directly to the stages, galleries, and film screens of Naples and the surrounding region.

I wish to thank everyone in our young ArtsNaples World Festival family– supporters, donors, volunteers, patrons, students, educators, sponsors, and all cultural arts lovers. Your commitment to the future of this remarkable Festival inspires us to grow beyond what we previously dreamed possible.

More excitement is yet to come as ArtsNaples World Festival engages the cultures of Italy in 2014 and France in 2015!
