John Lennon’s Artwork Coming to Cape May

By Jack Fichter

CAPE MAY — Legacy Fine Art & Productions, in conjunction with Yoko Ono, are pleased to showcase the Artwork of John Lennon in the exhibit’s first time ever visit to this city July 20, 21 and 22 at the former Build-a-Bear Shop, 411 Washington St. Mall.
“Come Together” is an opportunity for fans from all generations to see the truly artistic side of Lennon.
The exhibit will feature hand signed pieces, as well as limited edition prints. John’s message of peace, hope and love still resonates through his artwork and is even more powerful and provocative on the 26th year of his untimely death.
This ever-changing exhibit has been one of the highest attended art showings in America for the past fifteen years and has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities throughout the world.
The exhibit includes the largest collection of Lennon’s works on paper ever assembled including over 100 pieces of art created by Lennon, encompassing the years 1968 through 1980 featuring selected new releases “War Is Over If You Want It” & “Imagine Peace.”
Rare works from the controversial “Bag-One” suite signed by John in 1970 will be displayed along with serigraphs, lithographs, copper etchings and aqua tints of Lennon’s drawings, signed by Yoko Ono including song lyrics and the “Real Love” children’s drawings sketched for his son Sean during the last few years of his life.
In the spirit of John & Yoko’s benevolence, the event will be raise money to help benefit Cape May Stage. A $2 donation at the door is suggested.
Hours on July 20 will be noon to 9 p.m., July 21, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and July 22, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
For show information: (888) ART-1969
