The 10 Best Art Galleries in Islamorada, Florida (FL)
Six islands in the Florida Keys comprise the village of Islamorada, known for its prime sport fishing. Rent a boat or participate in a guided tour to fish, snorkel, or swim with marine life. Fresh seafood is the hallmark of the Islamorada dining scene. Visit a tropical-themed bar to soak in the full Florida Keys experience with a frozen umbrella drink.

We spent the day poking around art galleries in the Keys. I have nothing against tarpon and beach scenes, but after about 8 stops, the fish heads were all starting the blur together. Michelle Nicole Lowe's gallery was our last stop and Michelle herself greeted us from her table in the back where she was, as we might have expected, painting. Her pieces are vibrant and colorful and, although her subjects are also marine life, her style is different from a lot of Keys artists. Her prices are mid range compared to the other galleries we visited and you can tell she has a passion for her art. Michelle is also very nice and friendly. We enjoyed chatting with her and hearing about her gallery. If you are looking for a gallery that is refreshingly different, stop into see Michelle.

Old Road Gallery is at Mileage Marker 88.8. It is an art studio owned by Dwayne King (copper & brass) and Cindy King (pottery) They also have on display several other artists products. The store is small, but packed with beautiful one-of-a-kind items. Cindy gave us a tour and suggested we visit the gardens. We really enjoyed the Sculpture Garden - full of wonderfully whimsical corners with functional seating, broken pottery pieces and several of the neighbors roosters & chickens! I inquired about a ceramic butter bell and there was one, but I already had one that was similar. I ended up purchasing aSecret Wooden Box for $18.00. Definitely stop in and be sure to see the garden!

My wife and I came across Pasta's art work at one of the Islamorada restaurant's. We went to the gallery and were really impressed with how he portrays the fish and landscapes of the area. Pasta and his wife took the time to talk to us and help find exactly what we were looking for. They were very cool and passionate about his work. He even touched up and played with one of the paintings to make it just what I was looking for. We ended up buying two pieces to bring home with us. Highly recommend stopping by and if you're lucky - meeting the artist!

7. Lobster Trap Art Gift Shop and Gallery
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 380 reviews
What do lobster traps and art have in common? Our Islamorada-based gift shop and gallery has the answer: tropical artwork in repurposed lobster trap frames. When we took an art class in 2002, we had no idea that our hobby would evolve into a full-blown store and website by 2003. Now, our in-person and online visitors are dazzled not only by our signature frames and paintings that line the gallery walls but also by our underwater photographs, apparel designs, gifts, and other brightly-colored items. We can create custom lobster-trap frames for pieces you bring in, and we can even custom-print your photos onto a wide variety of items in less than 15 minutes! Inspired by our travels in the Caribbean and the Florida Keys, our store speaks to art lovers both near and far.

A fun way to spend an hour on the way down to Key West. Lots of handmade items from local artists and quick snacks make this a most enjoyable stop - we did it twice - both ways on our trip to the Keys.
