SARASOTA, Fla. — The Sarasota African American Cultural Coalition and Ringling College of Art and Design have teamed up for an exhibition celebrating Newtown history.
The exhibit features art created by current Ringling College students showcasing the contributions of African Americans in Sarasota dating back to the 1900s to present-day.
"The exhibition is a collaboration between the Newtown Alive organization and Ringling’s INDEX program," Ringling College said on its website. "INDEX provides students with the chance to work on real-world projects with real-world clients to gain crucial work experience before graduation."
The gallery is open to visitors from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. It's free of charge and runs through Oct. 22 in Gallery 123 on the first floor of the Larry R. Thompson Academic Center on the Ringling College Campus.
