First 1,000 Days Sarasota County is a community initiative to improve the health and well-being of babies and families. The initiative, and its nearly 70 community partners, launched a website to empower all parents and caregivers with simple tools proven to promote quality early childhood development. Known as The Basics, these actions are the artistic theme for the mural artwork competition. Artists are encouraged to creatively express one or more of The Basics in their design.
