St. Petersburg ranked as top arts destination -- posted by Florida Fine Art Blog

 


American Style Magazine has ranked St. Petersburg No. 1 in an annual survey of the nation’s top "mid-sized U.S. cities" 25 arts destinations. St. Petersburg has a great art scene with fine galleries and world class museums. One of the best kept secrets of Florida is the Dali Museum. Most Floridian's are not even aware that all of Dali's best work is here in Florida. St. Petersburg is a town not unlike where Dali was born in Spain. The Museum sits right on the water next to the fishing boat fleets. With the ocean and fishing played such an important role in Dali's work, the museum is perfectly situated. The Dali Museum is undergoing a huge transformation which will be completed in January of next year. GL
