5x5 for $5 Community Artmaking Event

Brought to you by Sarasota Rising and Creative Liberties

Creative Liberties is proud to sponsor the 5x5for5 event that is a part of Sarasota Rising's "Living Arts Festival". This is a collaborative event that allows artists and other members of the community to create art together. This event and its participants will further support the arts when the art is displayed and available for purchase by the youth of our community.

This art will be available for purchase at a special event called Rise & Shine Saturday on Saturday November 9th, 2024 from 9:00am - 5:00pm at the Municipal Auditorium. This 5x5for5 will provide an opportunity for the children to become art collectors by purchasing their very first piece of art for just $5. This type of art project is already utilized in many festivals around the country. This 5x5for5 is our unique spin as, well, we all know sometimes, less IS more!

The required 5"x5" Canvases can be picked up at Creative Liberties 901B Apricot Avenue location, Thursday - Saturday, 10am -3pm. Preferably, we would like artists to attend the Collaborative Artmaking events that will take place at Creative Liberties 927 N Lime Avenue location on Tuesday, September 17 between 3-7pm AND Friday, October 18th between 1-7pm. Canvases will be provided, but artists should bring their own materials they would like to work with. Have extra materials or materials you're not using anymore? Bring them along for others to use! This is a communal, inclusive event and there is no cost to participate.
