I heard about a new contemporary art space in Sarasota that sounded cool. There’s a little (very little) info about a party there Friday night on their website, s/art/q but we’re booked for Friday night so we decided to just drive over there yesterday.
We found a generic warehouse/office park type building but there weren’t any signs. We drove around to the side of the building and spotted an open door.
Part of me doesn’t want to see the rest of the space now, because we think this was perfect just the way it is:
Seriously though, I do want to check this out next time I’m here. Here’s some info off their website:
Mission
Our mission is to provide visual and cultural leadership for Sarasota County by developing, strengthening and promoting the excellence, scope of educational role of the visual arts, while initiating and fostering partnerships, collaborations, and liaisons with all art groups, local business, and citizens of Sarasota County. In addition the SARTQ organization holds a strong belief to educate the community of Sarasota as to the value of public support for the arts.
Let’s go
We’re up for whatever.
Thank you for your interest! I’m glad that you came and took the initiative to find the spot…what you actually found was the nerve center/secret library of S[aRt]Q…aka my bathroom.
Our current location is 1421 Blvd. of the Arts @ The HuB (it was listed incorrectly on the website). Stay tuned for more info on upcoming events. We hope to see you there.
Hi Joseph – email to follow. We actually did stop by the screenprinting event and were totally impressed. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town.
Cheers!
