We rented the arts center for our November 2022 wedding and we couldn’t have been happier! From the initial tour with Stasi to the planning and night of with Rebekka, everything turned out so beautifully. This venue has EVERYTHING! we had the reception on the front steps, cocktail hour on the rooftop and reception in the gallery. The rental even included shutting down the street! We are so thankful to the entire team as Hurricane Ian impacted so many venues in the area, we were still able to have our big day just a month after the storm. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

An incredible venue of both art and atmosphere! Galleries on the main and second floor, a modern rooftop bar as a "hat". One of the few truly unique sights to see if you're in the area!
We celebrated my husband's 60th birthday at the SBDAC and we were blown away by, not just the beauty of this building, but the staff were AMAZING! The value of having our party there cannot be understated. They were accommodating with ALL of our needs and requests, we never felt nickel-and-dimed like most places and the staff, OMG I can't say enough, the staff were the AMAZING. Starting with Stasi Gonzalez who helped us book the event and organize all of the details. She was so easy to work with and communicated extremely well. Then on the day of the party, we met Spencer who helped us with loading all of the party decor and food into a safe place. It is important to state that we had originally planned to have the party on the rooftop until a completely unexpected rainstorm hit us 1 hour before the party was to start. This is where the SBDAC team really stepped up! They moved all of our stuff down to the 2nd floor indoor gallery, moved all of their bar setup and helped us decorate an entirely different space within 45 min of the party starting. To say these people were hardworking, accommodating and efficient is just an understatement. Special thanks to Harper, our Event Manager who made sure everything was getting set up perfectly and she stayed throughout the entire night. Jacob & Olivia, our Bartenders we THE BEST and also helped with the change of venue set-up (Jacob, thanks for helping me fill those vases!). Alex, the Barback, and Luz & Christian for moving tables, fetching chairs, re-directing lighting and literally doing anything we asked. You all were amazing! And shout-out to Dharma (please forgive me if I got your name wrong) who directed all of our guests to the new location and ensured no party-crashers tried to sneak up. All in all, parties are so much work, but the SBDAC makes me look at our future and see what other events we could consider hosting. Maybe next time the weather will cooperate and we can party on the rooftop!
Definitely need to go back. First time ever being there. GCL [ #gcl_gulfcoastleisure ] Art and Poetry Event was celebrating Latinex Heritage Month. A lively evening of live music, spoken word, poetry, as well as displays/exhibits of contemporary art, fashion design and entrepreneurs in personal care and healing. KUDOS to GCL. Special thumbs up to Brian and Marco.
It is a treat when our Southwest Florida Symphony musicians get to play at the historic Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center, surrounded by fine art. We hosted our first Mini-Masterworks of our 60th Anniversary concert season here last night. The String Trio delivered an EXCELLENT performance of Bach’s Goldberg Variations. We can’t wait to be back. Thanks to all who support the music and arts in our community!
