The St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church Women's Guild hosted their annual fashion show and luncheon March 14 at Michael's On East. Guild members modeled casual and evening looks from Evelyn and Arthur, a women's boutique in downtown Sarasota. 

Funds raised from the event benefit different organizations each year and this year the Women's Guild chose the Sarasota Medical Pregnancy Center, All Faiths Food Bank and St. Martha Catholic Church's Bethesda House. The organization also raised enough funds to build 92 homes for migrant farmworkers in Arcadia, Florida.
