About Sarasota, Arts & Culture....
There's no need to stay on the beach to enjoy all that Sarasota has to offer. After all, no matter where you stay the beaches are only minutes away. The mainland is home to many of the attractions and activities that add depth and character to Sarasota vacations.
Off the islands, Sarasota is defined by a rich and varied arts scene that belies the size of the city. There's the famous John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, featuring an enormous selection of paintings -- including one of the largest collections of Rubens in the world. Visit the Ca' d'Zan mansion and the Circus museum.
We have Opera in the historic Sarasota Opera House, the Sarasota Ballet and Sarasota Orchestra. National touring shows in the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall. For theatre lovers there is the Asolo, Florida Studio theatre, West Coast Black theatre just to mention a few.
