About Naples Philharmonic Center for the Arts



The Philharmonic Center for the Arts is a 99,000-square-foot facility located in Naples on the southwest coast of Florida. The Center opened in November 1989, and contains two stages. The main stage is in the Frances Pew Hayes Hall. A smaller black box facility is called the Myra J. Daniels Pavilion. The Center includes four art galleries, several meeting rooms and two sculpture gardens. The building is also home to the Naples Philharmonic Orchestra, in residence from October through May. We are also home to the newly founded Naples Museum of Art.

Historical Facts



Naples community began to build a dream nearly 20 years ago. The dream started with the establishment of the Naples Philharmonic Orchestra. Soon, plans were on the drawing board for an arts center that would be a permanent home for that orchestra.
Each season since first opening in November 1989, it have brought more people into our cultural complex to see an increasingly diverse selection of events. And each season it has grown fiscally. Started without funds in 1983, the Philharmonic Center is now a $95 million corporation. As of December 31, 2001, net assets totaled $82.5 million – an increase of $11.7 million over the prior year. It currently has an operating budget of $21 million. These numbers are a reflection of a community’s talents, ideas and faith.
In November of 2000, Naples Philharmonic Center opened the region’s first full-scale art museum. It continues to build for the future by expanding a program for the young people of this community. Last season, more than 42,000 children participated in Philharmonic Center events – an increase of 5,000 over the previous year.
