30 years serving our mission!

Over 2,500 tickets donated to veterans, seniors and low income families.

Throughout the conception and development process of the City of Sarasota’s master plan for the Sarasota Bayfront, there was one vision that remained steadfast: to build The Sarasota Performing Arts Center as a venue that best serves future generations and represents the wishes and desires of our community based on direct engagement, feedback and insight.
