An artistic storm hits Cape Ann on Thursday, July 8, when the first “Culture Splash” takes place at nearly 20 locations within Gloucester’s Rocky Neck and Harbortown cultural districts, which co-host this program.

Starting this week, and every Thursday through the end of August, Culture Splash will take place from 4 to 8 p.m.

The event includes art exhibitions, musical performances, and demonstrations. Cape Ann Transportation Authority (CATA) will provide free trolley rides from one cultural district to the other (approximately a 30-minute loop), featuring hop-on, hop-off stops. Cape Ann Harbor Tours also is providing a complimentary water shuttle from one district to the other.

Details about the many places to visit and the water shuttle and trolley stops may be found by visiting DiscoverGloucester.com.
