Arts & Culture

Friends of Osprey Junction Trailhead and Sarasota County Centennial 2021 are partnering to present a free webinar celebrating Sarasota County’s 100th anniversary. A grant from the Gulf Coast Community Foundation is underwriting this webinar. Discover the intrigue, drama, and perseverance that sparked Sarasota District civic leaders in 1921 to break from Manatee County to create Florida’s 62nd County. Learn how the Tamiami Trail and the 1920s Florida land boom impacted the formation of Sarasota County—and how visionary Sarasotans persevered to fulfil their dreams and economic ambitions as they led a county independence movement.
