ABOUT US

Who We Are

Sanctuary of the Arts (SOTA) is a collaborative, artist-led institution that operates under three tiers of service to South Florida’s diverse community: 1.) To present world-class national and international talent, 2.) To support and strengthen existing small and medium arts organizations, and 3.) To support the next generation of young artists with an array of mentorship opportunities, including strategic planning, development, production, rehearsal and performance space. We also operate as an umbrella organization, working in collaboration with Music, Dance, Theatre, and Visual Arts organizations and artists in myriad forms of events and performances. Both a presenter and/or producer, SOTA’s reach and impact is exponentially maximized through four resident companies, and over 10 collaborative partners, all leading to a wider audience base, more personal engagement, and ultimately assisting in workforce development of sustainable arts careers.

Our Arts Campus is one-of-a-kind in the nation. Operating within two historically designated properties, we offer two professional size studios, a 314-seat theater, teaching and mentoring classrooms, and offices. The spaces are Wi-Fi equipped for virtual conferencing and teaching, and some are equipped for High-Definition Audio and Video Recording.
Sanctuary of the Arts is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 that operates as an umbrella organization, working in collaboration with Music, Dance, Theatre, and Visual Arts organizations and artists in myriad forms of events, performances, and activities.
Our dynamic team of staff and volunteers is encouraged by the opportunity to bring to South Florida a full season of Performing and Fine Arts.

We welcome your input and look forward to hearing from you!
