Professors Ray Arsenault and Gary Mormino have discussed the highs and lows, heroes and scoundrels of St. Petersburg and Tampa on several occasions. This time they will sharpen their focus upon their favorite architectural wonders and blunders across the Tampa Bay skyline.

This lecture will be held indoors at the historic St. Petersburg Woman's Club located on Snell Isle. Masks are strongly encouraged.
