aboutus
The Artists' Guild of Anna Maria Island (AGAMI) is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit art organization founded in 1989 by the late Genevieve Novicky Alban. Genevieve envisioned a space where local artists could come together to collaborate, support one another, and enrich the community through art.
Since its inception, AGAMI has been a hub for creativity and connection. Our Guild members collectively showcase and sell their work in our nonprofit gallery, organize engaging exhibits, host classes, and serve as ambassadors for the arts throughout the greater Sarasota/Bradenton area, and beyond.
Together, we continue to uphold Genevieve's legacy, fostering a vibrant art community and inspiring creativity in all who join us.
