Behind The Brush - David Acevedo

This week, I sat down with a true SWFL Art Icon - David Acevedo, who is not only a top talent in art but also the owner and founder of DAAS Gallery. David shares the history of where it all started in Downtown Fort Myers, the challenges in moving and facing the hurricane, but most importantly, where it is TODAY with the Art-Triad at the corner of Colonial Blvd in great partnership with the Alliance for the Arts! Additionally, David talks about not only his retirement, but the amazing talent he is surrounded by at the Gallery and even a spooky story from beyond the grave just in time for the Halloween Season!
