Visible Men Academy to Host Battle of the Sexes Fundraising Showdown

The Giving Coast

Who has the most competitive spirit in Sarasota? Who can charm a crowd? And, most importantly, who can raise the most money for the boys of Visible Men Academy? Those questions will be put to the test on Sunday, November 1, 2026, when Visible Men Academy (VMA) hosts “Battle of the Sexes,” a lively fundraising competition bringing some of the area’s most accomplished—and entertaining—community personalities together for an evening of friendly rivalry, food, music and fun. The event will take place from 5 to 9 p.m. at Art & Central, 611 Central Ave., Sarasota, with proceeds benefiting VMA students, affectionately known as its SUNs. The premise is simple: Pick your host. Join their team. Cheer them on. And help them raise the most money. For more information, visit vmacademy.org.
