10 Arts & Entertainment Events to Enjoy in March in the Bonita Springs & Estero Area

Mar 01, 2018 01:40PM ● By Kevin
Bonita Springs & Estero have plenty of exciting things going on, but it can be tough finding out about them. There's a lot going on in your neighborhood this month, especially in the arts and entertainment categories.

Kick off the month with staged scenes from great works of Opera and Broadway with Steffanie Pearce, professional soloists, chamber orchestra and chorus. Interested in taking a class? There's a workshop, this month, designed to give students a way to better understand how to draw the figure. Students will analyze the two essential components of the figure: gesture and structure.

Shangri-La Springs invites the community to experience an evening of artistic and tasteful experiences at its Art & Nature Community Night “Roots” in the middle of the month. The free event will feature a variety of activities and performances throughout the property including a tapas dinner, live performances and presentations of artistic works from local artists and musicians.

There's also live music all day at Matanzas on the Bay in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. Be sure to check that out!

We've compiled 10 things that are happening throughout March 2018, that could be fun to do. Check out our list below, and if you'd like your event featured in a future Editor's Picks Events article, add it to our calendar!
