3. Marco Island Historical Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 471 reviews
Long famous for its Key Marco Cat- one of the most remarkable and influential discoveries in North American archaeology- the new Marco Island Historical Museum explores Southwest Florida's Calusa Indians and bring this vanished civilization to life with informative displays and an exciting recreated village scene. Temporary and traveling exhibits trace the settlement of this subtropical island paradise from its early pioneer roots as a fishing village, pineapple plantation and clam cannery, through its explosive growth and development in the 1960s by the Miami-based Deltona Corporation.

This was our first time visiting this museum. We were pleasantly surprised by it's floor space and quality of the exhibits. The history of Marco Island included a 25 minute informative movie and the room depicting the early settlers, mainly the Calusa Indians, was so interesting. A trip to this museum is definitely worthwhile.

Malenda paints with a touch of the old world masters and the 19th century impressionists. Her aggressive style has bold flowing lines, vibrant colors and stimulating textures that capture the essence of contemporary life. This puts her in great demand by all looking for images for their products. In 1999 she was discovered by an art licensing agency, which worried that her art looked too much like museum art. Today, Malenda’s art is used on products including tapestries, stationary products, calendars, designer bank checks, and tile and stone murals. Malenda has a wide variety of home decor and tabletop products including trays, trivets, and coasters. Malenda’s portraitures of the prominent include golfer Sam Snead, President George W. Bush, US State Senator and Actor Fred Thompson, US Representative Marsha Blackburn, Tennessee Governors Ned Ray McWherter and Phil Bredesen, Tennessee Titans football team owner, Bud Adams, and country music performers, Vince Gill and Amy Grant.
