Take the 45 minute, air conditioned bus ride with other mid-century modern enthusiasts from Sarasota to Warm Mineral Springs - one of the most intriguing natural features in the continental United States. This tour is SAF’s first to the North Port area, and promises to be special in many ways. Architect Jifat Windmiller, RA, of the NY firm Penta Windmiller Architecture, will present an in-depth look at the mid-century modern architecture of North Port (NoPoMo), highlighting Warm Mineral Springs and its unique “Cyclorama.” Although the facility is currently closed to the public while negotiations with a future facility operator continue, SAF has been granted special permission to privately tour the site and see first-hand what everyone has been talking about.
Admission is limited to 49 for the bus tour, and includes lunch at the Venice Art Center. After lunch we'll drive by the mid-century homes in Venice including Victor Lundy's "Herron House" (1957) and make stops at the Venice Beach Pavilion (1963, Cy Tucker) and the Nokomis Beach Plaza (1956, Jack West).
SAF expects the tour to sell out quickly, so please reserve online as soon as possible.
