Sarasota Fine Art Show by Hot Works at Sarasota Art Museum - January 31 & February 1, 2026

Hot Works' Sarasota Fine Art Show is held outdoors at the Sarasota Art Museum, located in south Sarasota with high visibility from US-41/Tamiami Trail. The museum welcomes seasonal tourists and affluent residents daily, and the picturesque historical setting with expansive lawn and large parking area makes this the perfect location for quality art shows. The venue is show-friendly with Friday move-in, real restrooms, and plenty of convenient parking. Light Dome tents & ProPanels are available for rent.

All disciplines of media are accepted, but artists must make their own work and be present during the entire show to personally staff their booth. Booth spaces are 10' x 10' for $510, 10' x 15' for $775, and 10' x 20' for $1,020, with corner spaces available for an additional $75. The show runs Saturday 10-5 and Sunday 10-4, with Friday move-in from 8am-7pm. Hot Works conducts an extensive promotional campaign including TV, radio, print, digital marketing, social media, postcards, and banners to bring patrons specifically to purchase art.

Applications require 4 images including 3 of your most compelling work and 1 booth shot, with no application fee. A jury of art professionals selects artists based on originality, technique/execution, and overall booth presentation. The show also features a Youth Art Competition for grades 6-12 or ages 9-19 with $250 awards. Hot Works emphasizes quality over quantity and makes every effort to eliminate buy/sell/import items from the show.
