Welcome to the Village of the Arts Merchants
Village of the Arts Merchants are the artists, makers, restaurateurs, wellness practitioners, and small businesses who bring color, character, and creativity to Bradenton’s Village of the Arts. From our monthly ArtWalks to the everyday magic of open studio doors, we’re proud to support local, celebrate art, and create welcoming spaces where community and culture naturally connect.
Our shops, studios, cafés, galleries, and wellness spaces are independently owned and rooted right here in the neighborhood. Many of us live, work, and create in the very buildings that line these vibrant streets. Whether you’re exploring galleries filled with original artwork, discovering handcrafted goods, enjoying locally inspired cuisine, practicing yoga, receiving massage, or simply strolling beneath the Florida sky, the Village offers an authentic, walkable experience that nourishes both creativity and well-being.
