Cheers to You!
YOU MAKE PINC POSSIBLE
PINC’s eleventh year was the most inspiring yet, and it’s all thanks to those that showed up in big ways across three incredible days.
Your energy filled the Sarasota Opera House on Thursday with the curiosity, creativity, and sense of wonder that make PINC Experience so special. You brought your big ideas and came ready for conversation to our longtable under the stars at Friday’s PINC Ideas Dinner. And on Saturday, you helped bring the Rosemary District to life at PINCfest as we put on an epic celebration of creativity and community.
Because of you, PINC isn’t just one day or one thing—it’s a movement across People, Ideas, Nature and Community that continues to evolve from Sarasota outwards, around the world.
Thank you for believing in what’s possible when curious minds gather, creative ideas are shared, and community comes first—and for helping carry the spirit of PINC far beyond these three days, into the world ahead.
PINC EXPERIENCE | THURSDAY, DEC. 11, 2025
11 SPEAKERS,
A WORLD OF IDEAS.
PINC’s 11th year kicked off at the Sarasota Opera House with 11 remarkable speakers, offering insights that spanned human connection, rare pigments, and even the art of cheese carving.
The day was packed with world-class performers, artists, and unforgettable moments as we reflected on PINC’s beginnings and thanked Dr. Larry Thompson for believing in PINC from day one.
Psst, guess what?
Thanks to you, postcards were sent to 103 cities across America and 48 countries!
PINC IDEAS DINNER | FRIDAY, DEC. 12, 2025
SARASOTA’S BEST DINNER PARTY.
On Friday, the longest table in Sarasota’s history stretched across Boulevard of the Arts, where over 150 gathered for a meal under the stars and conversations that sparked big ideas for what’s next.
Familiar faces and new connections leaned in together, turning community-style seating into meaningful exchange and reminding us that some of the most powerful ideas are born not on stages, but across a shared table.
WHERE IDEAS MEET THE STREET.
PINC FEST | SATURDAY, DEC. 13, 2025
PINCfest broke the mold. 13 muralists from around the country brought life to our walls. BMX turned the Rosemary District into an urban playground. Local makers filled the space with wares and heart. A street-level celebration of creativity, done differently.
THE PARTNERS BEHIND PINC
PINC wouldn’t be in its 11th year if it were not for the incredible support and generosity of our partners, many of whom have been with us from Day 1. We're forever grateful for their guidance over the years, their belief in our vision, and their fervor for creativity and changemaking.
