Art Center Sarasota

Mission & Vision Statement Art Center Sarasota brings together creatives and the broader public to increase understanding of our human condition, support wellbeing, and build community connection through the universal language of art. We envision a future where art and culture are increasingly essential to our community. The contributions of visual and performing arts will be valued equally as pillars of a thriving bay front historic district. Through this cultural hub and community outreach, people of all ages and backgrounds will have access to enjoy the many benefits of art. Artists will have the encouragement and practical support needed to gain visibility and grow professionally. Art will stimulate discussion, enhance critical thinking, and elevate the community’s social consciousness.
