The Exchange (formally The Women's Exchange) is dedicated to the support of Sarasota and Manatee counties' local arts community since its inception in 1962, over 260 dedicated volunteers work to ensure that the ever changing inventory is filled to the brim with such amazing finds as Baccarat crystal, Tiffany silver, Gucci handbags, fine jewelry, men's/women's clothing, high-end furniture and oriental rugs. The Exchange plays a crucial role in the community, as well as providing visitors with a quirky retail experience. Awarding more than $8.5 million dollars in grants and scholarships, we invite you to come see how "Together We Can Make a Difference."
