Annual Juried Members Show
On View Jan 22 - Feb 21, 2026
The Annual Juried Members Show celebrates the incredible breadth and depth of talent within Art Center Sarasota’s vibrant member community. Unbound by a theme, this exhibition offers an open invitation into the diverse creative worlds of our artists.
What sets this exhibition apart is its inclusivity: every member artist who submits is guaranteed a place in the show. This democratic approach highlights our commitment to accessibility and artistic equity, while creating a rich and varied visual dialogue. The Annual Juried Members Show is not only a celebration of individual vision, but a powerful reflection of the collective creativity that defines the ACS community.
This year, in honor of our Centennial, the exhibition expands to fill all four of our gallery spaces—making it a joyful and powerful way to celebrate 100 years of creativity, community, and the enduring spirit of art in Sarasota.

The Juror, Willem van Osnabrugge:
Willem van Osnabrugge grew up on the outskirts of Amsterdam, Holland. Although he excelled in the arts from a young age, he pursued a professional career in science, working as a creative perfumer while maintaining art as a personal passion.
In 1985, Willem moved to the United States, living and working near New York, Baltimore, and Chicago. After retiring, he settled in Sarasota. Today, Willem focuses on painting in pastels and oils. His work has received numerous awards and recognition in Florida, England, and Holland.
