TWiST Art Gallery opens in Naples

TWiST Art Gallery, Art Space & Artist Studios has opened in the Bayshore Arts District of Naples, Florida, as a new non-profit creative hub. The grand opening was funded primarily by two sold-out Embellished Wearable Arts Fashion Shows in 2024 and 2025, which raised over $100,000 for affordable art classes and studios. Additional support came from The Community Foundation, Jan Edwards, and the Gail Danae Kasbi Foundation. The gallery will offer affordable artist studios, a fine art gallery, community workshops, rotating exhibitions, and monthly First Friday Art Walk events. Monique Kutash has been appointed Art Director, and plans include an artist-in-residence program and a Mini Art Gallery Series featuring outdoor micro-galleries hosted by local businesses.
