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.
