Big-city thrills near the beach...
Welcome to the Hampton Inn & Suites St. Petersburg-Downtown.

Get in touch with your artistic side-or your wild side-in St. Petersburg, a coastal metropolis with beaches that once hosted vacation visitors like Al Capone and F. Scott Fitzgerald. The Hampton Inn & Suites® hotel in St. Petersburg-Downtown offers the same spirit of luxury to a new generation of visitors.

See a pier unlike any other at "The Pier," located in the waterfront downtown scene close to our St. Petersburg hotel. It features a glass elevator, a marina aquarium and a five-story view of Tampa Bay. Also within minutes of our St. Petersburg hotel are the St. Petersburg Museum of History and the Salvador Dali Museum. If you're a nature lover, then you must see the wildlife refuge areas on Shell Island and Egmont Key, also home to a historic lighthouse and fort ruins, or traverse the 2.6-mile Friendship TrailBridge, the nation's longest over-the-water recreation trail. If shopping fever has gripped you, then visit BayWalk in downtown, a vast entertainment-shopping complex. The team at our hotel in St. Petersburg will gladly offer tips on all the local sights.

$500 - That’s how much it costs to bring an artist into a classroom to electrify the creativity of all students, including those with a disability.
$500 provides an avenue to change teacher attitudes about the abilities of students with disabilities.
$500 offers an opportunity for students with disabilities to change their perception of their own abilities and for their classmates to turn up side down their perception of disability.

Arts for All Lending Program

VSA Florida has a statewide database of art making tools that can be used in the classroom, neighborhoods, parks and recreation sites, or anywhere there is a sidewalk or open space for creating.  Arts for All art tools are one-of-a-kind products that offer individuals of all abilities an opportunity for creative expression through arts and mobility.  Art tools are designed so participants with limited movement or lack of fine motor skills can be successful in using what mobility they have to create, paint, draw, and print.

If you are interested in leasing the equipment for absolutely no cost (only cost is for disposable materials), please contact your regional program coordinator or Wendy Finklea at 813-974-0715 or wfinklea@usf.edu.
