Living in Sarasota

Sarasota is a cultural hub with two major art museums, a botanical garden that hosts rotating art exhibitions, and an artist residency program that attracts global icons. Come see why Sarasota is voted one of the top places to live in the United States.

Exploring the Outdoors

We are also home to 40 miles of coastline featuring some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. Hike through trails canopied by Spanish moss, palm trees, and oaks at the picturesque Myakka River State Park, or kayak around the twisting mangroves on Lido Key. Living in Sarasota means never having to hide from the weather. From the skate park to the 10-mile-long mixed-use Legacy Trail to tropical landscapes, there is plenty to keep you out in the fresh air.

Culture

Students have unlimited access to a constant rotation of transformative exhibitions at Sarasota Art Museum of Ringling College of Art and Design, the College’s dynamic laboratory for the exploration and advancement of contemporary art. Or, you can explore the grounds of the 66-acre Ringling Estate through the Bayfront gardens, with the historic Ca’ d’Zan mansion, the Museum of Art, the Circus Museum, and Asolo Repertory Theater. With over half a dozen theaters, an opera, ballet, art galleries, unique restaurants, comedy clubs, and more, there’s so much to discover.
