The Fort Myers Beach Art Association will rebuild its gallery after being destroyed by Hurricane Ian.

MK Architecture, which specializes in commercial, hospitality and multi-family architecture, has been commissioned to design a new arts building for the organization.

The project includes a 3,500 square foot, two-story building to house the gallery and studio. Construction is expected to begin early next year.

The FBMAA is an all-volunteer, member-operated, non-profit organization opened in 1951 which promotes the study, practice and appreciation of art.
