January 24 & 25, 2026 | 18th Annual Ft. Myers Art & Crafts Show – Bell Tower Shoppes

January 24 & 25 | 18th Annual Ft. Myers Art & Crafts Show - Bell Tower Shoppes

Bell Tower Shoppes always been a proven winner with reliable shoppers! We’ve been producing this winter event for 18 years and every year it seems to get better. At the peak of the Snowbird Season the timing couldn’t be better!

BEGINNING THIS FALL, ALL ART & CRAFT SHOWS AT BELL TOWER MUST BE HELD IN THE INTERIOR COURTYARD. THEREFORE, ALL SETUPS WILL NEED TO BE DOLLIED IN AS THERE WILL BE NO DIRECT ACCESS WITH VEHICLES.

I expressed concern about the necessity of moving exhibitors to the interior of the center. So in turn she said they will allow us to put up signs all around the mall parking area and we will be featured on their marquee.  Plus Dan, my wonderful web guy not only has 200k direct emails in every city we do shows in, we are now also going to do direct mail postcards to the surrounding homes of Bell Tower and all areas we do shows in as well. In addition to our Facebook and Eventbrite pushes.

I have booked the January date because that was our busiest show at Bell Tower last year so I’m hoping that will help make the interior busier when people start looking for the shows. If no one is allowed to do outside shows, people will start looking for them and will see they are on the inside.  Unfortunately, there will be no room for food trucks, but artisanal foods can be sold.  If January goes well I will book February and March as well.
