Founded in 1979, Sarasota Magazine emerged as a platform to provide comprehensive coverage of Sarasota and the surrounding region's lifestyle and culture. The magazine was created with the intent to be a publication that could serve as an indispensable guide to the best of Sarasota and the local authority on everything the community had to offer. In March 2024, Sarasota Magazine was acquired by DreamLarge, a B-Corp known for its commitment to social impact and community engagement. The magazine is currently owned and operated by DreamLarge, with Anand Pallegar as CEO. Sarasota Magazine covers a wide range of topics including local news, arts and culture, dining, real estate, business, sports, entertainment, and lifestyle content. Based in Sarasota, Florida, the magazine serves as a primary source of information for residents and visitors in the Sarasota region. In addition to its print edition, Sarasota Magazine also maintains a robust online presence through its website, which is updated daily, and offers multiple email newsletters and social media channels. **One interesting fact**: A unique aspect of Sarasota Magazine is its connection to PINC (People. Ideas. Nature. Creativity.), a gathering that brings global thought leaders to Sarasota. This initiative, along with others like DreamLarge Weekends and the Dreamers & Doers series, showcases the magazine's commitment to inspiring and shaping the future of the Sarasota community beyond just reporting on it.
