Danni Dawson teaches there; so does Rob Liberace. Far as I can tell it's open daily 10-5, so Sunday should be fine. I took my first portrait-drawing class there something like 12 years ago. I wish I was going with you all; besides all the incredible things you'll participate in with the conference, a field-trip to the Torpedo Factory will inspire you all. It has evolved far beyond what it was in the days I fondly remember.
There are vacant properties in downtown Sarasota that I fantasize have the potential to evolve into a Torpedo Factory South, but it takes a very united community to make it happen. It's a one-of-a-kind place.
As an aside, there used to be an absolutely incredible Ethiopian restaurant nearby, on King Street. I've eaten all over the world, and that restaurant makes my top 5 list.
