The Captiva Civic Association (CCA) will kick off its Art Series for the 2025-26 season next week with an opening reception for the first of four exhibitions planned at the gallery in the coming months.
“Tides & Times” will be on display from Nov. 20 through Dec. 19 at the Captiva Civic Center on Captiva. It will spotlight pieces by photographer Shane Antalick and wood printer Lafe James.
“The community of Captiva has had many talented artists throughout the years,” CCA Director Lauren McCraney said. “The association has had the honor of many of those artists being our members and exhibitors.”
Featuring about 30-40 pieces, the exhibit explores the contrast between Antalick’s vivid, modern photography of the natural world and James’ vintage Florida-inspired imagery, handprinted on wood.
“The artists share a common coastal theme — Antalick’s work highlights bright seascapes, while James reimagines nostalgic visuals of Florida’s past,” the CCA shared. “‘Tides and Times’ celebrates the enduring artistry found in nature and the ways landscape shapes our sense of place.”
On Nov. 20, an opening reception for the exhibition will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at the center. It will include light bites, cocktails and live music. While it is free for attendees, RSVPs are encouraged.
“The artists will be there — to give some insight into their work,” she added.
All of the artwork will be available for purchase, with a percentage to benefit the CCA.
“To continue to offer programs like this,” McCraney said.
Karen Bell and the Bell Team is the CCA season sponsor, Bank of the Islands is sponsoring the Art Series, and Stephanie Bissett is the flower sponsor for the arrangements provided by Florabel.
The community is invited to come out.
“It’s a beautiful, special exhibition celebrating local artists,” she said. “It’s a way to bring the community together through the muse of art.”
