"The most amazing, life-altering, eye-opening, practice-evolving, friendliest
and generous of gifts"
- Margaret Stewart, Photographer

Every symphony you hear, every play you see, every dance you experience every painting and sculpture you see, and every book you read, begins its life with a person in a room with an idea and a passion. The Hermitage provides the room for accomplished creators in a spectacular, inspiring environment. Our artists bring their brilliant ideas. Together, with nature, we feed the passion, and we share it all with our community. This is the work of the Hermitage.

OUR NEW WEBSITE
Welcome to our brand new website. We are so excited to have you looking at our "Latest News." This work represents a complete re-design funded by the Gulf Coast Community Foundation of Venice, and beautifully executed by the crew you see on the left. This section of our homepage will always introduce something exciting to which we want to call your attention.

MEET THE ARTISTS

Since the Hermitage is all about artists, this section of our home page will feature something about the profoundly creative men and women who come to the Hermitage. We’ll use this section to point you to interesting news and tidbits about past Hermitage artists, as well as to let you know who is on their way.

TAKE PART IN OUR COMMUNITY

Since all of our artists give free community programs, this section is the place to stay in touch. Here we will tease you with the highlights of programs to come. Clicking on the headline takes you to more detailed information where you will be able to learn more, reserve space, and for our fundraisers, even purchase tickets.

EXPERIENCE THE SURROUNDINGS

If you've been to the Hermitage, you know how impossibly beautiful it is. If you haven't been to the Hermitage, you can at least see some wonderful pictures of it.
