🎨 Englewood’s Art Legacy Ends

Ringling Closes EAC After 50 Years

The Englewood Art Center—once a flourishing hub for artists, classes, and community—is no more. Ringling College officially shut it down in May 2025, consolidating all programs to Sarasota's Museum Campus.

Originally a former American Legion Hall, the EAC served Englewood creatives for five decades. Now, memberships are honored at the Sarasota Art Museum and Asher Lifelong Learning Institute for the next year.

A town hall was held to address what’s next. The College is exploring future cultural uses of the space. This marks a major shift in Sarasota County’s arts scene.
