Welcome to the Surface Design Guild Sarasota Website!

Surface design is the complex embellishment and transformation of materials including fibers, paper, clay, glass and metal.
The purpose of the Surface Design Guild Sarasota is to increase community awareness of surface design and to offer educational, exhibition and sale venues for our members. Our membership is open to anyone with an interest in surface design in any variety. Dues are $25.00 and should be paid  on or before the new year begins in September of each year.


Our lively, talented group meets once a month where we are inspired by the sharing of ideas and learning new techniques.

Everyone is welcome, please join us!
Members are encouraged to bring a guest each month.
We meet on the 2nd Tuesday of each month
Join us at 6:00pm for social time and at 6:30pm for the meeting at the:
