Ringling Museum Trip
About Sarasota
If you're looking for an activity that combines art, history, and nature, look no further than the Ringling Museum. The museum has some major pieces of renaissance art and the galleries are overwhelming in their quality and piece count. The Ringling's life story is also a great read and visiting there made us look up even more details of their storied lives. And don't forget the gardens.
On March 14th, bus departs from the Community Center at 745 am. Returning around 530 pm.
$175 all inclusive
