Public Arts, City of Orlando
The City of Orlando Public Arts curates three galleries. They are
free to the general public. Each gallery has ongoing show, which
usually run three months. Two of the City of Orlando's main galleries
are in downtown City Hall. The Terrace Gallery has been opened since
City Hall was dedicated in 1992. The Terrace Gallery was originally
designed to be a lecture room but it was quickly noticed the space
would be better utilized as an exhibition space for local, national,
and international artist in efforts to reflect the cities dedication
to local artists as well as providing a space where outside artists
can share their vision with our community. The Mayor's 2nd and 3rd
Floor Gallery is a beautiful circular gallery space on the 3rd floor
of City Hall, which overlooks the 2nd floor landing and extends
down two long hallways. This gallery space is dedicated to only
local Orlando artists. The gallery at Harry P. Leu Gardens is located
within the historic Harry P. Leu Gardens Garden House, where a visitor
may peruse the halls of this historic landmark and find revolving
exhibitions displaying fine art of botanical themes as well as permanent
works owned by the city.

Wells'Built Museum of African American History
Dr. William M. Wells was a prominent African-American physician
in Orlando during the first half of the 20th century. He created
the South Street Casino to host touring black bands and, since Orlando
was rigorously segregated, he opened the Wells'Built Hotel next
door to house the musicians. Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie, Ray Charles,
Cab Calloway, Ivory Joe Hunter, and many other musical greats played
the Casino and stayed at the hotel over the years. White Orlando
didn't know what it was missing.
The Casino is gone now, but the hotel remains. It has been converted
into a modest museum housing memorabilia of Orlando's African-American
community along with some African art on loan from local collectors.
Dr. Well's home has been moved to the site of the Casino and will
be restored and opened to the public.
