The Francis Wilson Playhouse continues to preserve the tradition of classic stage performance in Clearwater. This vintage entertainment venue balances its impressive heritage with a hint of modern flourishes while never betraying the artistic integrity of the playwrights, performers and directors who create what is eventually presented on stage. The theater boasts some of the best and most respected actors in the area who have worked hard to build a reputation for the best local theater experience in Clearwater.

Cooperation instead of competition is the mission of Studio 1212. Established in October of 1970, this is the oldest artist cooperative in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. The membership is limited to thirty members who not only create and teach their craft in this cooperative, but they frequently hold openings and display their art for the public to view and purchase. Various classes are offered as well, as the members of the co-op also value the opportunity to give back by teaching their craft to aspiring artists.
