Sarasota Art Museum
Jeffery Kin talks with Virginia Shearer, executive director of Sarasota Art Museum, about Something Borrowed, Something New, an exhibition featuring works from private Sarasota collections. Virginia shares how the show came together, why some collectors were hesitant to part with pieces from their homes, and what makes it special to see these works in a museum setting before they return to private spaces. The conversation also touches on the history of Sarasota Art Museum, its role in the community, and the way contemporary art invites curiosity, conversation, and lifelong learning. Along the way, Virginia offers a look at what else is happening at the museum this summer, from new exhibitions to summer camp and educational programs for all ages.
