A E BACKUS MUSEUM & GALLERY
About us
The A.E. Backus Museum & Gallery, a 5,000 sq. ft. public visual arts facility, was established in 1960 by A.E. Backus, the preeminent Florida landscape painter, and a group of local art enthusiasts. Open five days a week from early September through June (summer hours by appointment) the A.E. Backus Museum & Gallery features the Nation's largest display of original paintings by Alfred Ernest Backus. The Gallery handles consignment sales of Backus paintings as well as other Treasure Coast artists of merit. Four additional exhibition wings feature changing exhibits of artwork by contemporary Florida artists. Located in historic downtown Ft. Pierce, a mere 2 blocks from Backus' longtime home and studio and adjacent to the location of his original studio, the Gallery is a worthwhile stop on any visitors itinerary. The Gallery's ample free parking provides convenient access to other area attractions, casual waterside dining and boutique shopping.
