The Florida Keys are an iconic travel destination for many reasons. One of the most celebrated features of the Keys are the breathtaking sunsets! Mallory Square in Key West is famous for its sunsets. In October, there will be an art exhibition dedicated to Mallory Square and its awesome Sunset Celebrations!
2024 marks the 40th anniversary of the Sunset Celebration at Mallory Square, a beloved Key West tradition that has captivated locals and visitors alike for decades. The "40 Years of Sunsets" exhibition pays tribute to this enduring tradition.
The Sunset Celebration has evolved into a nightly festivity that brings together people from all walks of life. It's a place where artists showcase their talents, musicians entertain the crowd, and visitors come together to celebrate the beauty of the setting sun.

The "40 Years of Sunsets" exhibition at The Studios of Key West will feature a diverse collection of handmade artwork, including wire and wooden sculptures, paintings, handcrafted jewelry, fiber art, and comic books. A video presentation will highlight busker and musician performances alongside interviews with participants. There will also be photographs that document the event's evolution.
Half of the proceeds from the exhibition will benefit the Key West Cultural Preservation Society. Your support will help alleviate the challenges faced by local artists and businesses in the wake of rising living costs and the pandemic.
