Wellen Park debuts new Wellen Park Living magazine

VENICE, Fla. (March 10, 2023) – Wellen Park’s fun-loving lifestyle, waterfront vibes and heartfelt connections come to full-color life in the pages of Wellen Park Living, a new glossy coffee table magazine that recently debuted. The inaugural spring 2023 issue also offers a sneak peek and the first public photographs of Downtown Wellen, including a beautiful cover shot of sunset kayaking on the Grand Lake and a from-the-water perspective of the elegant Solis Hall immersed in natural surroundings as its “parting shot” on the final page.

“Wellen Park Living celebrates the excitement and the unique vision of our special community,” said Christine Masney, vice president of marketing for Wellen Park. “We are thrilled to introduce readers to all Wellen Park and Downtown Wellen have to offer and share our insights into the area’s hidden gems, many only locals know about.”

Wellen Park Living will be published quarterly by locally owned SRQ Media Group, a hyper-local media engagement company committed to exploring the relationship between audiences and storytelling with impact in the Sarasota and the Bradenton Area. The magazine is available in Wellen Park neighborhoods, CoolToday Park, Wellen Park Marketplace, Punta Gorda Airport, Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, Venice Chamber, North Port Chamber and various retail and hospitality locations throughout the region. It is also online at wellenpark.com/wellenparkliving.

In addition to showcasing some of the unique experiences and future tenants in Downtown Wellen Park, the debut issue spotlights nearby kayaking and beach daytrips along the Gulf of Mexico, spring training and year-round events at CoolToday Park, and Wellen Park’s community commitment by building cottages for kids in partnership with Habitat for Humanity South Sarasota County.
