Each year at the “Collectors’ Gala,” the invited artists select what they consider the “best” painting of the 10-day event. The Forgotten Coast Cultural Coalition purchases that painting and adds it to a growing collection. Take this opportunity to view past years of these paintings which our artists have chosen as the Best of the Best! The hours of the exhibit are Monday-Friday only, 10:00 am - 6:00 pm (EDT) at the Welcome Center in Mexico Beach. It is located at 102 Canal Parkway in Mexico Beach. Please note that the FC event uses Eastern time on all events so although Mexico Beach is on Central Time, this time is listed in Eastern Time Zone hours.
