Exhibit dates

July 8–Aug. 10, 2025

Join us for a reception on Thursday, July 10, 2025, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.at the Lenexa City Hall Art Gallery.

James Caldwell and Chuck Watson come together in this exhibit that highlights the interplay between artistic form and material.

Caldwell, a painter and art educator, explores the emotional charge of crowds and the quiet resilience of nature through textured, expressive compositions. His current work includes studies of the American Sycamore tree, rendered with thick brushstrokes and rich color. 

 Watson, a retired teacher, brings a lifelong devotion to clay and fused glass, shaped by decades of teaching and study across the Midwest and Colorado. His sculptural glasswork captures light, movement and natural forces. 

 Together, their work invites viewers into a conversation across time, medium and elemental inspiration.
