Part 2: Painting the Beauty of Naples with Paul Arsenault

Dela

In the conclusion of this special 2-part conversation, Kristen Weardon continues her exploration of Naples with acclaimed artist Paul Arsenault. Having lived a block from the Naples pier for decades, Paul provides an intimate look at the "genteel appreciation" of the town’s early days and the influential figures - from philanthropic giants to "old characters" - who helped shape its history.

Paul reflects on the importance of environmental stewardship, the evolution of local landmarks like Everglades City and Corkscrew Swamp, and his personal mission to preserve the last remaining architectural gems of Old Naples. This episode serves as a powerful call to action to honor the community’s roots while navigating the inevitable tides of development and change.

“If this could be saved, this would be special for the community and for generations.” — Paul Arsenault.
