What does Arts Advocates mean to you?

“Learning about the many dynamic arts organizations in Sarasota has enriched my life and inspired me to explore genres that hadn’t even been on my radar before! But the most impactful part of Arts Advocates membership occurred when I began to volunteer a few hours a month doing things I enjoy and making new friends in the process.”
~ Rennie Carter, member since 2018

“Joining Arts Advocates has been the most pleasurable decision I made since moving to Sarasota. I enjoy working toward goals that are important to me, and Arts Advocates provided me with many varied opportunities and the ability to make strong friends. These friends are important folks in my life and have contributed to my enjoyment of Sarasota for the past 15 years.”
~ Vern Weitz, member since 2007
