About this Event

Kick Off MOD Weekend 2025 at the Iconic Umbrella House! Join Architecture Sarasota for an unforgettable evening of libations, live music, and celebration at one of Sarasota’s most treasured landmarks. This event launches MOD Weekend 2025, a tribute to Moderns That Matter, honoring Sarasota’s legacy as a global hub of modern design innovation.

Built in 1953, the Umbrella House is a masterwork of modern architecture. Commissioned by visionary developer Philip Hanson Hiss and designed by the legendary architect Paul Rudolph, it stands as a beacon of bold, forward-thinking design, embodying Sarasota’s architectural significance.

Don’t miss this stylish start to a weekend full of design, culture, and community!

Umbrella House appears as No.22B on the Moderns That Matter: Sarasota 100 list as a “Single-Family Residence,” and Lido Shores Neighborhood is inscribed as No.23.
