Molly Duff-Clarke
Molly Duff-Clarke invites viewers into a vibrant, life-sized world of ceramic furniture and domestic vignettes that reimagine the home as a space of unrestrained joy, texture, and playful reinvention. Through brightly colored ceramics adorned with yarn, velvet, and tactile excess, Molly explores the complexities of building a home and raising a family in today’s shifting cultural landscape.

Shaping Sarasota: A Century of Art
Shaping Sarasota: A Century of Art marks the culmination of Art Center Sarasota’s 2025–2026 Centennial Season, presenting a chronological visual history spanning 100 years of creativity. This landmark exhibition features rich archival images that highlight the artists, influential members, and community leaders who helped shape the Center’s evolving identity and legacy.

Antoine Williams
Antoine Williams presents a new body of work that reimagines Black southern cultural folklore and traditions through a surrealist lens. Williams has exhibited nationally, including at Smack Mellon Brooklyn, the Nasher Museum of Art, The Weatherspoon Museum, 21c Museum, North Carolina Museum of Art, Prizm Art Fair, and the California Museum of Photography among others.

Juried Show: Icons
Icons is a visual exploration of figures, symbols, and moments that shape culture, influence society, and transcend time. From historical legends to contemporary trailblazers, this exhibition examines what it means to be iconic—whether through fame, influence, or artistic interpretation.
Artists are invited to submit works that engage with the idea of "icons" in any form—portraits of cultural figures, symbolic imagery, or conceptual reflections on power, legacy, and myth-making. Whether celebrating, critiquing, or reimagining icons, this exhibition seeks bold and thought-provoking perspectives.
