The Alliance for the Arts is an organization that is located in Fort Myers, Florida, devoting its time to facilitating and nurturing cultural and arts promotion, development, education and creation in the Lee County area. Founded in the 1970s, the organization provides support and theater space with a huge cultural centre.
