Actually, it’s about doing good, not debauchery, as “Wet Paint Live” returns to the island for the fifth year. A group of well-known Marco and Southwest Florida artists will fan out to locations all over the island with their easels, each creating a painting from start to finish on that day. The resulting works will be auctioned off that evening, many with the paint still wet – hence the name – in a charity fundraiser. lances22@gmail.com (LANCE SHEARER)Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:14:00 -0000urn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299635-734539entertainment/arts-theaterLANCE SHEARERMARCO ISLANDPreview: Easel does it – ‘Wet Paint Live’ has art happening all over Marcogonaples.compreview-easel-does-it-wet-paint-live-has-art-happeurn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299635-734539Change0Usablehttp://www.gonaples.com/news/2012/feb/06/the-art-of-blancing-art-shows-can-naples-support/?partner=RSSLast year, the Naples International Art & Antiques Fair arrived with fanfare, an elegant preview night and valet parking, boasting five days of impressionist art, 18th-century furnishings, antiques, jewelry, rare books and prints — and not much competition. liz@elizabethkellar.com (ELIZABETH KELLAR)Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:00:00 -0000urn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299644-734539entertainment/newsELIZABETH KELLARNaples, FLHigh-end antique, art and jewelry expos: Can Naples support two in one month? gonaples.comthe-art-of-blancing-art-shows-can-naples-supporturn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299644-734539Change0Usablehttp://www.gonaples.com/news/2012/feb/05/naples-make-a-wish-fundraiser-a-shining-success/?partner=RSSA soldout gala brought supporters and some of their recipients together at the Make-A-Wish Foundation gala Jan. 20 at the Naples Hilton.

The vision these days is perhaps a car stereo rattling the spare tire, or rap spat out with an angry voice; but, as proven Saturday at Florida Gulf Coast University, the old style is still alive; the one with hours and hours of practice...blistered fingers and repetition so often that the young artist dreams of practice. winterglas@aol.com (JOHN WINTER)Sun, 05 Feb 2012 04:48:00 -0000urn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299562-734537bonita_newsJOHN WINTERNaples, FLPHOTOS: Young artists compete at Prescott awardsgonaples.comcollier-county-jillian-prescott-music-awards-2012urn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299562-734537Change0Usablehttp://www.gonaples.com/news/2012/feb/04/holocaust-museum-southwest-florida-10-years-school/?partner=RSSThis year, the Holocaust Museum & Education Center of Southwest Florida.in North Naples celebrates its 10th anniversary as it looks to continue efforts to promote tolerance and stamp out hatred llayden@naplesnews.com (LAURA LAYDEN)Sun, 05 Feb 2012 01:00:00 -0000urn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299296-734537entertainment/newsLAURA LAYDENNAPLESDecade of teaching: Naples Holocaust museum had roots in middle school project gonaples.comholocaust-museum-southwest-florida-10-years-schoolurn:publicid:www.gonaples.com:news-Story-299296-734537Change0Usablehttp://www.gonaples.com/news/2012/feb/04/asia-fest-naples-2012-photos-mercato/?partner=RSSFolks celebrated the Year of the Dragon at Asia Fest at the Mercato Saturday.
