Art collectors from Florida and indeed across North America will make their way to “The Nation’s Oldest City” for our hosting of the most diverse display of art from one of the Nation’s most prestigious associations, the Oil Painters of America 24th Annual National Exhibition & Sale. Our Brilliance In Color Gallery will be bursting with original paintings that represent only the best from the best. We want to make you aware of this major art event happening right here on Florida’s First Coast. This is a major undertaking for us and over 250 of the finest oil painters in North America have contributed work. The exhibition of the selected entrants will be unveiled at our Brilliance In Color Gallery, 25 King Street (on the plaza) in downtown St. Augustine. Some 250 new originals will be on display and available for sale to the public.

We were delighted and surprised to learn that we were even being considered for this honor. The O.P.A. selected us based on a criteria of capability, capacity and I am sure the complete allure of our quaint hometown. It was also a stroke of good fortune for us, the artists and the collectors who will visit us from far and wide that 2015 is our town’s 450th Anniversary… truly we are The Ancient City.
