Abstract

This exhibition is a presentation of a small part of the history and the art of boat building on the West Coast of Florida. Using full scale boats, models, hands-on building experiences and lectures as well as the written word we can begin to understand something of the influence that boats have had on the lives of people who have called this area home. This is an unusual gathering of boats as well as men and women of the sea. We hope you will enjoy it. The exhibition features Irwin Schuster, Robert Stackhouse, George Stovall, Karen Vann, Terry Tomalin, Carol Mickett, Lea Pearson, Joe Richards, Roger Allen, Bob Pitt, Sea Quest Kids, the Main Hatch Motley Crew of Cortez, as well as student performances from The USF St. Pete Singers and The SPC Madrigalians. The exhibition also includes the written works from students of John Hopkins, including Serena Mullins, Sabrina Hamilton, Javaris Harris, Brittany Echevarria, Anna Fitzgerald, Liz Williams and Kim Doung. Many thanks to Matt and Laura Bryant.
