Best kept secret on Sarasota Bay - An Eventective User from Tampa, FL

Was the Powel Crosley booked ? Was the Ringling Museum out of budget ? Look no further than College Hall & the historic Ringling Mansion! Spacious grounds, historical charm, and the incredible view of the bay await you! Don’t wait - book a tour today! Naomi and her team at New College are the BEST!

Beautiful location - An Eventective User from Sarasota Fl

College health provides a most beautiful and picture us backdrop for weddings in the Sarasota area. It is a stunning space with beautifully kept grounds. Having indoor and outdoor options in Florida is always super helpful. We love being able to work with this location for Wedding needs!

Fatastic experience from start to finish - An Eventective User from Sarasota, FL

Beyond the obvious beauty of the building and grounds was a caring staff that was responsive and a true pleasure to deal with. When needed they were incredibly helpful in offering suggestions on how things should be setup. I would highly recommend this venue for any important and classy event.
