Presented by Friends of Albert Whitted Airport & Roundhouse Creative The remarkable story of Albert Whitted Aiport – St. Petersburg’s small airport with a big legacy. Albert Whitted Airport has long been a gateway to dreams for aviators and the local community in St. Petersburg, Florida. Now, the airport’s rich history, its pivotal role in aviation, and its deep ties to the community will be spotlighted in an upcoming documentary produced by acclaimed filmmakers Andrew Lee and Laura Landry of Roundhouse Creative Studio. A Story of Passion and Progress Albert Whitted Airport’s story is one of determination, growth, and community spirit. Founded in 1929, this small but significant airport has witnessed nearly a century of aviation evolution. Over the years, it has served as a hub for local pilots, commercial aviation, military operations, and even medical services. The airport’s rich history is filled with milestones that reflect the broader growth of aviation in the U.S., making it a symbol of progress not just for St. Petersburg, but for the entire aviation industry. Celebrated Filmmakers with a Legacy of Excellence Whether in the main concert hall, Hough Hall with its unsurpassed new sound system, or kicking back in the intimate Side Door Cabaret, the historic Palladium Theater is consistently ranked as one of Tampa Bay’s best, most affordable venues for classical, jazz, blues, theatre, opera, comedy, dance, educational, literary, community events, and more.
