Florida International Museum at St. Petersburg College brings the world to you by creating personal experiences through large-scale exhibitions which tell a story about people, major events or cultures throughout history. FIM has hosted major exhibits such as Vatican Splendors, Diana- A Celebration, and Titanic.
"In a New Light" explores contemporary Florida art from the Gulf Coast Museum of Art, including artists Clyde Butcher, Salvador Dali, and George Inness. St. Petersburg College acquired the collection when the museum dissolved in January, ensuring it remain intact for the community to enjoy.
