 More than a decade after its founding as a creative hub for the Latino communities of Sarasota and Manatee counties, CreArte Latino Cultural Center is poised for a leap of exponential growth. A $126,000 grant from Charles & Margery Barancik Foundation will provide the funds to launch the center’s “Fortifying CreArte” initiative, which will elevate the organization with paid professional staff, an accounting service, and more.
