Шта да очекујете

Sarasota Municipal Auditorium

Travelers will learn about the Art Deco style, which first appeared in France during the 1910s, and flourished in architecture and fashion, through the 1930s. The Sarasota Municipal Auditorium is a fine example of Art Deco style. Visitors will also learn about the history of the Auditorium, built in 1938. The Art Deco Chidsey Library is also on the itinerary. The Chidsey Library opened in May 1941 as the City of Sarasota's first public library building.

Burns Court Neighborhood

The Burns Court Historic District includes houses (and some commercial buildings) that are fine examples of Mediterranean Revival architecture. Visitors will learn about the history and design of the Burns Court development in the mid-1920s.

Art Center Sarasota

The Sarasota Art Center represents the Sarasota School of Architecture, a particular movement in Mid-Century Modern architecture. The Blue Pagoda is another Mid-Century modern building on the tour. Designed by a founding member of Sarasota School of Architecture, Victor Lundy, this 1956 Japanese garden-inspired structure is a sight to behold near the bayfront. Built for the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce, the structure features a Japanese blue glazed tile roof. Lundy wanted the blue tiles to reflect the nearby blue waters of Sarasota Bay.

This tour was simply amazing! Tour guide Ed was a dynamic fountain of knowledge, bringing to life the buildings that best epitomize the evolution of Sarasota-area architecture. Has inspired me to learn more about the architectural styles--Mid-Century Modern, Art Deco, and Mediterranean Revival--and their cultural and historical contexts. And what a boost this tour was to civic pride for this newcomer! The driver Ed was also excellent. Thoroughly recommend to visitors and residents alike.

A group from the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Ringling College of Art and Design took a tour this morning. The van seats only 9 passengers, so it was a small group which made it ideal to hear the guide and ask questions. Our guide, Ed, was excellent and knowledgeable about the various styles of architecture in different neighborhoods in Sarasota. The tour went downtown, then later on Bayshore Dr where there are beautiful examples of Art Deco, Spanish and Mediterreanean revival and New College where many buildings were designed by IM Pei. Along with James, the terrific driver, Ed and he provided us with an educational and informative tour. I recommend it to visitors as well as residents, like our group, who came away with a new appreciation of our beautiful area.
