Join us for a deeper dive into the history of these patches of paradise!
Every square foot of Florida has some kind of interesting story attached to it, and the islands of Sarasota Bay are no different. Early developers not only shaped the character, but also the very boundaries of the land to create the keys as we know them today.
Presented by: Dr. Josh Goodman, Manager, Sarasota County History Center

A Florida History Lecture Series Summer 2024 "In the Islands" Program: Island life. Island time. Island living. There's just something about islands that brings to mind swaying palm trees, a salty ocean breeze and a cold drink in your hand. The islands of Sarasota Bay are no exception. But, was the history of our favorite barrier islands as idyllic as we like to think? In this summer's session of the Sarasota County History Center's Florida History Lecture Series, we'll explore the riveting stories of how our islands were formed, built, pioneered and developed.
