The Hermitage Artist Retreat announced today that Ralph Farris, a Hermitage Fellow and founding violist and artistic director of the genre-bending string quartet ETHEL, will headline the organization’s signature fall fundraising event, The Artful Lobster: An Outdoor Celebration! Now in its 12th year, the Artful Lobster raises valuable funds for the Hermitage’s renowned artist residency program. The event, which takes place outdoors beneath a large tent on the Hermitage’s beachfront campus, is Saturday, November 14, 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m., at 6660 Manasota Key Road, in Englewood. Several new health and safety protocols have been implemented for this year’s celebration, and the Hermitage has published these at HermitageArtistRetreat.org/Safety.

The event’s co-chairs are Flora Major and Leslie Edwards. Single tickets, starting at $275, are extremely limited due to capacity. Sponsorships and tables range from $1,000 to $5,000.
