    I love art- for inspiration, or picking up art in mediums I don't have access to or haven't tried yet. Fiber art is one of those mediums I know little to nothing about- especially and sun-print on fabric art. I've stopped int his gallery before and always consider it a treat. This time we were fumbling outside in the rain looking for masks, because of a sign on the door, when a lady threw the door open and said- come in! Oh thank goodness. It was cold and raining. I was the hold up. Once inside- I saw several pieces of art I loved, but in the front window had hues of blue ink on fabric and the creator used ferns and leaves and such to be printed on small pieces of fabric. There were bigger pieces or art that included stitching and had a quilting feel. Beautiful embellishments. I also love glass art- I have plenty of it throughout my house already. But I was hung up on that one artist work. The back corner had a bunch more of pieces- including smaller, less expensive ones. I was him-hawing. I loved the colors. Blues and greens are my favorites & there was one that just caught my eye. My girlfriend was trying to point out the less expensive ones. I was about to walk away when she mentioned she thought the lady who let us in was this artist. What!?!? She was right and I jumped in and grabbed the one I loved. Always happy to meet the artist and make that connection! Definitely stop in for an eclectic mix of art mediums.

    The Fernandina Art Association is a non-profit volunteer organization whose purpose is to develop and sustain an interest, appreciation and enjoyment for the arts in Nassau County! These free 2nd Sunday of the month lessons and projects are fun and a great way to meet new people. Today 2/16/20 we used oils and wax to mainly try our hands with flowers! Oils can take 2 weeks to dry so we will have to wait before we present to the world..lol!

    This is a great place to see and buy a variety of local art. You can meet the artists who take turns working the sales desk.

The space is bright, welcoming, and full of personality..every corner has something that catches your eye and makes you want to linger. The artists here pour so much heart into their work, and you can feel it the moment you walk through the blue door. I loved how intentionally curated everything was. Nothing felt mass‑produced or generic; it's the kind of studio where you can find pieces that truly tell a story.. If you're visiting Fernandina Beach, this studio is a must‑stop. It's the perfect blend of creativity, charm, and local artistry. It is the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. Absolutely a 5‑star gem.

I found myself wanting more pottery and hand woven baskets! They have photography, paintings, jewelry, cards, prints, pottery, baskets and more! It's a little reverent for me to walk into someone's studio space- it's a sacred space for creating, I understand this completely and I am always humbled to be in another artists space. I highly recommend you climb the stairs and explore for yourself!

    This is a really cool area to walk around and explore while on Amelia Island. There are tons of…read morerestaurants, bars, gift shops, and art galleries within 50 blocks. The buildings have such beautiful architecture. They have a courthouse, post office, and a hotel that were built over a hundred years ago. The Palace Saloon is Florida's oldest bar. There is also a lighthouse nearby the district. My favorite thing to do was to grab a cup of coffee and walk in and out of gift shops. I also took strolls along the seaport and watched the boats go by. If you want to know more about the area, you can visit the Amelia Island Museum of History to learn more about its history. For food, there are plenty of dining options within the historic district. I highly recommend eating at the Salty Pelican. The Farmers Market runs every Saturday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
