Start the holiday season with a special day at Clyde Butcher’s Venice Gallery & Studio on November 16th, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.! Join us to meet Clyde and Niki Butcher, get your books signed, browse unique gift ideas, and enjoy Clyde’s stories over some tasty refreshments.

Be among the first to catch an exclusive clip from a new documentary about Clyde and Niki’s inspiring journey, shown right in our cozy darkroom theater.

For an extra treat, Clyde’s darkroom will be open for you to explore—a rare chance to see his creative world up close. We’re also thrilled to celebrate Clyde’s recent National Medal of Arts award from the White House!

During the event, 15% of all Big Cypress photograph sales will be donated to S.W.A.M.P. (Swamp Water and Me Program), an initiative through the National Preserve that takes every 6th grader in Collier County on a swamp walk, fostering a love and respect for this land in future generations.

We can’t wait to share this special day with you, honoring the incredible impact of Clyde and Niki’s work.

The event is free, and we’d love for you to RSVP so we can plan refreshments and create a welcoming space for all. For more info and to reserve your spot, CLICK HERE.
