We were honored to host the 38th Launching Leaders in the Arts Luncheon on April 9, 2025, at the beautiful Prestancia Country Club. Thirteen remarkable high school seniors from Sarasota and Manatee counties were recognized for their outstanding achievements in visual art, letters, and music. These young creators gathered with family, teachers, and members of our branch to celebrate the power of creativity and expression.


The luncheon was a vibrant showcase of talent and passion. Guests were treated to live readings from our letters winners, who shared their award-winning works with poise and emotion. Music winners performed their original compositions, captivating the room with their artistry. Meanwhile, the winning visual art pieces were proudly displayed for all to admire—each one a unique reflection of the student’s perspective and voice.


A heartfelt thank you goes out to the many individuals and organizations who made this event possible. Your generous support helps us continue this legacy of arts advocacy and education.
