Embracing Our Community
St Pete’s Grand Opening Celebration

Join us at Poynter Park for the grand opening of Embracing Our Differences, returning for its third year in St. Pete! This free event features 50 billboard-sized works of art, each paired with an inspiring quote.

Enjoy an afternoon filled with live music performances, delicious offerings from food trucks, and interactive, family-friendly activities hosted by local community and arts organizations.

We are grateful to the City of St. Petersburg, our Presenting Sponsor, for their support of this year’s celebration.

We invite you to be a part of this joyful celebration that brings art and community together!
