Please join us for the dedication ceremony for "Poly," the newest addition to the City of Sarasota’s public art collection, on Sunday, February 11, at 2:00 PM at the southeast corner of Whitaker Gateway Park.

This striking 20-foot-tall sculpture was created by the acclaimed New York-based studio Hou de Sousa. Selected in 2019 as part of the City of Sarasota’s "Art in the Roundabouts" program, "Poly" was installed in early 2025 following pandemic-related delays and construction challenges. Its vibrant, geometric design reflects the City’s commitment to fostering creativity and community through public art. (Read more: https://www.sarasotafl.gov/Home/Components/News/News/4116/16)

A representative from Hou de Sousa will be in attendance to share insights into the vision and creative process behind the piece. We hope you’ll join us for this special event as we celebrate art, innovation, and community in the City of Sarasota.
