Sarasota is a giant in the Floirda Arts scene. From the early days of its history, Sarasota has stood as a thriving supporter of the arts.

Today, the local commuity is very involved and supportive, has high expectations, and is quite demanding. At almost every turn, first-rate art is a staple of the local scenery.

Professional art galleries as well as world renown galleries and museums that are open to the public. An extensive restoration and expansion of the Ringling properies is a sight you should not miss.

Arts & Entertainment

Not only are there huge icons in Sarasota, almost every community in the area has its own local theatre - a playhouse.

You can also experience first-rate performances of current Braodway shows as well as venerable favorites.

Your own involvement in creating art is encouraged through a number of galleries and, in particular, the two Art Centers - one in Sarasota County and one in Manatee County (Bradenton).
