SUMMARY:Artful Conversations: John Sloan’s “Scavenger Rocks”
DESCRIPTION:Join Us Mid-Day for Artful Conversations \nTake a midday pause and experience one work of art in depth. \nArtful Conversations are informal\, docent-led gallery experiences that invite visitors to slow down\, look closely\, and engage in thoughtful conversation. Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the Education Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of the featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, participants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives\, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversations \nThe program will offer an in‑depth look at John Sloan’s Scavenger Rocks\, a recent acquisition that deepens our understanding of the artist’s long-standing ties to East Gloucester. The presentation begins with a brief overview of Sloan’s stays at the Red Cottage from 1914 to 1918\, a formative period that shaped many of his most compelling Cape Ann paintings. From there\, the talk turns to the granite outcropping near Niles Beach\, drawing on contemporary photographic documentation to illuminate the site’s distinctive forms and its role in Sloan’s artistic process\, offering a vivid\, tangible link between the artwork and the landscape that inspired it. \nDan Duffy and his wife Helene have been Innkeepers at the Beech Tree B&B in Rockport for 16 years. In this capacity\, he takes pride in serving as an ambassador of goodwill for travelers from around the world. He is passionate about showcasing our region’s rich history\, geographical uniqueness\, and artistic treasurers. As a Cape Ann Museum docent\, Dan uses his experience connecting with visitors while deepening his own knowledge of the Museum and of the region’s vibrant social and cultural history.

SUMMARY:Hiraeth: A New Series of Works by Ryan Davis - Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us on November 5th for an Opening Reception for Rockport-based artist\, Ryan Davis and his collection titled “Hiraeth”. \nHIRAETH\nby Ryan Davis \nA Welsh word for a deep\, melancholic longing for home\, for a place\, a time\, or a sense of belonging that is irrevocably lost—or perhaps never truly existed. \nOn November 5th\, Grand Banks welcomes Rockport artist Ryan Davis for the opening of Hiraeth\, a new series exploring the emotional landscape of home and the places we carry with us long after we have left them. \nRooted in the landscape he calls home\, Davis’s work reflects on memory\, place\, and the passage of time—considering what remains\, what changes\, and what can only exist in recollection.

SUMMARY:Puss N Boots w/ Norah Jones\, Sasha Dobson & Catherine Popper
DESCRIPTION:IN 2008\, NORAH JONES\, SASHA DOBSON\, AND CATHERINE POPPER FORMED PUSS N BOOTS. \nInitially it was a vehicle for Jones and Dobson to play music together and try new things\, with Popper joining on bass shortly after. The trio played various New York clubs\, with a repertoire anchored in Americana\, country\, folk\, pop and rock. The band became an outlet for Jones\, Dobson and Popper to switch instruments\, and allowed them to showcase a different side of themselves than in their various solo and side projects. \nIn 2013\, some five years after the group began playing\, they signed with Blue Note Records and set out to assemble their debut record. Comprised of originals and covers\, studio recordings and live performances\, that debut was called No Fools\, No Fun. Released in the summer of 2014\, it was supported by a tour of the U.S. \nIn 2019\, the trio took the stage at the MusiCares charity event honoring Person of the Year Award recipient Dolly Parton\, and performed Parton’s “The Grass Is Blue”. Later that year Jones\, Dobson\, and Popper released their holiday album Dear Santa\, followed by their 2nd full length album Sister in 2020.

SUMMARY:Cape Ann Shakespeare Troupe presents Laugh Out Loud
DESCRIPTION:Cape Ann Shakespeare Troupe (CAST) kicks off its 2026-27 season with Laugh Out Loud. Shakespeare’s quote “Prepare for mirth\, for mirth becomes a feast.” aptly describes this feast of modern one-act comedies: Base Model Man and Who Ate the Cheetos? by Kevin Perrin of the Gloucester Writers Center\, and Black Comedy by Peter Shaffer. \nBase Model Man\, directed by Alexis Armstrong\, imagines a dealership where a woman shops for the perfect man with available upgrades such as “willing to share housework” and “actually listens”. Directed by Billy Lewand\, Who Ate the Cheetos? is an eight minute comedy in which a simple family mystery erupts into a full-blown courtroom style confrontation a la A Few Good Men. In the classic farce Black Comedy\, directed by Mark Efinger\, a young artist and his fiancée secretly furnish their apartment with a neighbor’s expensive antiques before meeting her intimidating military father. When the electricity fails and unexpected guests arrive – a suspicious neighbor\, a nervous spinster\, a talkative electrician\, and an old girlfriend—the comic chaos escalates. \nPerforming from November 5th-8th and 12th-15th\, all performances are at The Natti-Willsky Performance Center: Home of Gloucester Stage Company\, 267 East Main Street\, Gloucester. Showtimes are Thursdays-Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 3:00pm. Tickets can be purchased online or by calling the box office at 978-281-4433.
