Letter-Writing Campaign to Save Rauschenberg Compound
A letter-writing campaign has been initiated by the Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation to persuade the Rauschenberg Foundation to accept an offer from an unnamed investor and the Captiva Island Fire Department to purchase Bob Rauschenberg's 22-acre compound.
The compound, located between Captiva Village and South Seas Resort, holds significant importance for islanders and the late artist's memory.
Throughout his four-decade tenure on Captiva, Bob Rauschenberg opposed all efforts to develop his slice of paradise.
The Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation encourages people to participate in the campaign by sharing their thoughts on the importance of conserving the property.
