Florida Watercolor Society

Annual Convention & Trade Show

FWS has a different theme for each Convention year to energize and inspire our fellow artists.

In the Fall of every year, FWS holds an Annual Convention & Trade Show in conjunction with our Annual Exhibitions. We move the venues to various locations around Florida so we can spread the love of watermedia around the state. These events are planned years in advance so we may contract with hotels, exhibition halls, and workshop artists. A lot of planning goes into these events. In 2025, we will be curating our 54th Annual Exhibition. Each Convention is different and full of one-of-a kind memories.

The In 2022, our Convention & Trade Show was held in Punta Gorda, Florida - in 2023 we were in Ocala, in 2024, we are in St. Petersburg, and in 2025 we will return to Orlando - our last Convention there was 2019. In 2026, we plan to be in Bradenton at ArtCenter Manatee's new facility now under construction. Watch our newsletters for future plans as they develop.

Please contact us at info@floridawatercolorsociety.org should you have any questions or if you require assistance.

We will get back to you within 1-2 days or as soon as possible.
