Historic Spanish Point is
30-acres centrally located in Sarasota County, Florida.
Learn about the region’s prehistory in "A Window to the Past," the
only archaeological exhibition in the nation built inside of a shell
mound. Visitors can also connect to Florida's inspiring pioneers by
seeing Sarasota's first produce packing house, a charming chapel and
pioneer cemetery, and the beautifully preserved Guptill House, built
in 1901. If plants are your passion, this museum has plenty to see
and explore, like Mrs. Palmer's Jungle Walk and Sunken Garden. The
butterfly garden is one of the largest on the gulf coast. All of the
amazing sites can be found in the quiet oasis of history located on the
shores of Little Sarasota Bay in the town of Osprey.

Each year, Historic Spanish Point
holds a fundraiser at Michael's On East in Sarasota
with proceeds benefitting the educational programs
of the museum. A large dedicated Committee under the
leadership of fabulous Chairs, presents a fun
lunchtime program featuring a cooking demonstration
by local favorite, Judi Gallagher. An exciting
live auction of amazing travel and culinary
opportunities delights the luncheon patrons. Beautiful raffle
baskets are a favorite element of the memorable day
and each year a unique theme is chosen.
