"Building Sarasota's Stories"

In conjunction with Sarasota’s Centennial Celebration Marlane Wurzbach's bold and colorful acrylic cityscapes and landscapes will be shown at Art Uptown Gallery this October in an exhibit entitled “Building Sarasota’s Stories." Ms. Wurzbach’s appreciation of Sarasota’s history grows as she works to preserve some of Sarasota’s architectural treasures on canvas. She’s drawn to the people who lived and worked in Sarasota and focused on this town’s best interests: Owen Burns Bertha Palmer Marie Selby Charles and Charlotte Abbe Harry Higel Katherine and Daisetta McClellan to name just a few. The exhibit runs from Saturday September 25 through Friday October 29.
