The Big One! More than 200 award winning artists showcasing their fine art will transform Main Street into a spectacular art festival experience. The overwhelming success of the Festival each year led to expanding and covering more than five city blocks in Downtown Sarasota. The Festival will fill Main Street starting at Orange Avenue and heading east to Links Avenue. The high level of artistic quality, the accessibility of the free, outdoor festival and the diversity of art has led to the Festival of the Arts' consecutive rankings among the top 100 art festivals in the nation, according to Sunshine Artist Magazine. Proceeds from the Downtown Sarasota Festival of the Arts benefits the Downtown Sarasota Alliance.
