About

A place that
feels like home.

The Elevated Garden Society is more than a space — it's a community, a creative sanctuary, and an oasis in the heart of Old Tampa.

A century of history.
A new chapter.

Built in the early 1900s, the Elevated Garden Society occupies one of Tampa's most quietly extraordinary buildings — a pink Spanish Revival exterior with white Corinthian columns, ornate arched doorways, and terracotta steps that have welcomed guests for over a century.

Step inside and the grandeur deepens. Original bas-relief plaster cameos of classical portraits. Gilded floral garland crown molding running room to room. Crystal chandeliers suspended from hand-carved plaster medallions. Warm walnut floors and antique furnishings that feel collected, not decorated.

Open to the public every Saturday for free gallery shows. A private members' club every other day of the week.

The People Behind It
The owners of the Elevated Garden Society

Built by people
who love this.

The Elevated Garden Society was founded with a simple but powerful idea: Tampa deserves a space that feels like a privilege to be part of. A place where the community is curated, the experiences are intentional, and the vibe is — always — elevated.

"We didn't build a venue. We built a home for the people who've always wanted somewhere like this."

We're rooted in Seminole Heights, in love with Old Tampa, and committed to building something that lasts.
