Last Sunday of the Month
Artists Statement:Daniel J Calvert
Growing up a block away from the Des Moines Art Center allowed me the luxury of immersing myself in the arts almost everyday. My earliest influences were the artists who graced the walls of the center, Hopper, Wood, Bresson, and Raushenberg to name a few. My largest influence and formal training occurred under photographer Archie Lieberman (Look 1952-9172, Time, Fortune, and others). Today, living blocks away from downtown Fort Myers, I find it aesthetically as well as philosophically pleasing to capture the interest of a subject or subjects which we may see everyday but which we unconsciously or otherwise choose to largely ignore, failing to take the time or effort to see something new about the world and ourselves in the process. It is my hope that with the use of unique, composition, and interesting perspective, the cumulative effect will allow you the viewer to see my interpretation, and a chance to see the subject, whatever it may be, new again. Seeing our world takes time, patience, and practice. Daniel J. Calvert

NINTH ANNUAL SEPTEMBER CONCERT
TO FILL SKIES WITH MUSIC
On September 10th-12th, around the world and across America, the skies will come alive with music as The September Concert Foundation organizes its ninth annual global days of music for peace.
Professional and amateur musicians will perform classical music, jazz, rock & roll – all kinds of music in all kinds of venues – from parks and squares, schools, libraries, churches, office building lobbies and plazas to cafés, stores, and senior centers.
In Ft. Myers, Nita’s Sweet Bean Café will host a Singer-Songwriters " Unite for Peace" concert on Saturday, September 11, 2010.
8-11 pm.
Local Singer-Songwriters will include; John R. Butler, Tim McGeary, William Metts, Darrell House, Joe Virga, Alan Bradford, JP Taylor and Tom Powell
What began as one person’s dream to fill the skies of New York with music on September 11th in 2002 has since grown into an event of global proportions. In 2009, close to 200 concerts were organized globally with the help of 10,000 volunteers and 15,000 performers worldwide.
Among this year’s concerts are the simultaneous concerts organized by British Memorial Garden Trust in New York (Hanover Square at 12:30 pm) and in London (Grosvenor Square at 5:30 pm, featuring The Regimental Band of the Coldstream Guards and The Band and Bugles of the Rifles); 15 concerts in the city of Rome, with the closing concert to be held in the Sala Santa Cecilia at the Auditorium Parco della Musica for 2,800 people; in Japan, 68 concerts will take place over 3 days; more concerts will be held in countries such as Ghana, United Arab Emirates, Haiti and Spain.
