Art in the Roundabouts

Sarasota’s award-winning Art in the Roundabouts program is a signature initiative that blends public safety with public art.

By transforming traffic roundabouts into sites for landmark sculptures, the City creates memorable visual gateways that both beautify the streetscape and enhance driver awareness. These striking installations reflect Sarasota’s commitment to creative placemaking at the intersection of form and function.
