Florida Panthers & Amazon Launch Local ‘Celebration of Arts’ Program

The Florida Panthers, in collaboration with Amazon, have announced the launch of the ‘Celebration of Arts’ program.

This initiative aims to encourage local artists to produce original artwork that both celebrates Florida Panthers hockey and reflects the vibrant culture and scenic landscape of South Florida.

Expressing pride in the launch, Chief Revenue Officer of the Florida Panthers, Shawn Thornton, highlighted it as a platform to showcase the wealth of creativity within the South Florida community.

He encourages local artists to submit their passionate designs that celebrate the connection between the hockey team and its fans at Amerant Bank Arena.

Adding that the company is dedicated to supporting local communities where its employees and customers reside, Head of Community Engagement for Florida at Amazon, Angelica Santibañez, expressed excitement about the partnership with the Florida Panthers, noting that the program offers a valuable opportunity for local artists to exhibit their work and engage with new audiences.

Santibañez emphasised the initiative’s role in acknowledging South Florida’s rich cultural diversity and artistic expression, stating that it enhances the overall fan experience.

She anticipates that participating artists will creatively interpret the energetic spirit of both the Florida Panthers and the local community through their submissions.

The culmination of this artistic endeavour will see selected pieces displayed on the Suite Level of Amerant Bank Arena, enhancing the experience for patrons attending hockey games and concerts.

Artists chosen for this initiative will have the opportunity to list their artwork for sale during its exhibition, with 100% of the proceeds directly benefitting the creators.
