Embracing Our Differences is seeking enthusiastic volunteers to dedicate 1-2 hours at Poynter Park during it's 2025 exhibition. Volunteers will assist by distributing and collecting exhibition surveys or counting visitors using a handheld counter. Your time and support help make our event a success!

Since 2004, Embracing Our Differences has used the power of art and prose to promote inclusion, kindness and respect. One way we accomplish this is through our annual international art exhibition in Sarasota’s Bayfront Park and St. Petersburg's Poynter Park. The juried exhibit consists of 50 billboard-sized works of art, each accompanied by a thought-provoking quotation.

Awards are given for "Best-in-Show Adult," "Best-in-Show Student," and "People's Choice" categories, with the last chosen by visitors to the exhibition.
