About
A spectacular mid-century modern building, designed by well-known architect Victor Lundy of the Sarasota School of Architecture, and designated as a historic site by Sarasota County sits on the banks of the beautiful Phillippi Creek. Two expansive floor-to-ceiling glass walls provide views of majestic trees, dripping with Spanish moss. This can be a stunning venue for your catered rehearsal dinner or reception or even your wedding ceremony out under the oaks. A large, caterer-friendly kitchen, a bridal room, table and chair setup, ample parking, and marquee signage comprise the rental. Seating capacity with tables is 140; auditorium seating is 200.
