Events Fort Myers

Fort Myers, July 15, 2010 – “Piece by Piece” the stained glass art of John Coleman, presented by the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center, showcases the stained glass creations of John Coleman. The show opens on August 6 from 6:00pm to 10:00pm during the Downtown Fort Myers Art Walk. The Laboratory Theatre of Florida will also present the one-act play “Anywhere but Here.”

John Charles Coleman and his brother Robert have practiced law in Fort Myers for the last 30 years.  John has worked with stained glass for over twenty-five years.  He was introduced to stained glass by his wife Patsy, who has helped him learn all facets of the art — windows, mosaics, fusing. Patsy has created an “oasis of peace” from which springs inspiration, innovation, and imagination.

 John’s stained glass art includes windows, paintings – floral, landscape, and abstract, many in a diamond shape – and a wide variety of vases.  Each painting, from the “canvas” to the completed frame, is the original work of John Charles Coleman.

In “Anywhere but Here” two very dissimilar runaways, a teen and a street-wise 70 year old, meet in bus station, in this prize winning and charming one act comedy. Show-times are 7:00pm and 8:30pm.

After 10:00pm the festivities continue in the Grand Atrium with Art After Hours. There will be a cash bar and pizza provided Downtown House of Pizza.
