The Sarasota Art Museum hosts its immersive fundraising gala, "Unconventional Evening," challenging the boundaries of a traditional benefit dinner. Hosted by Executive Director Virginia Shearer, the campus-wide event encourages patrons to actively interact with the exhibitions and "be the art." Rather than a static seated meal, the night features fluid movement through the contemporary gallery spaces, pairing bold culinary stations and curated cocktails with live performers and direct artist interventions.
