SUMMARY:The Great Marsh Starts Here! A Living Landscape in Motion
DESCRIPTION:The Great Marsh Starts Here! A Living Landscape in Motion brings together artists from the Great Marsh Artists Fellowship for an exhibition celebrating three years of artistic exploration\, collaboration\, and engagement with one of New England’s most significant coastal landscapes. \nThe exhibition features work by artists who have participated in the Great Marsh Artists Fellowship\, a program created to support artists in developing new projects inspired by the Great Marsh\, its natural and man-made history and significance\, as well as its beauty and immediate fragility. Over the past three years\, 22 artists have been selected as Great Marsh Artist Fellows and have dedicated themselves to creating 24 projects that connect art\, ecology\, history\, science\, and community. Some have been completed and presented to the community\, others are still underway. \nThe exhibition brings together work by 18 of the 22 Great Marsh Artists Fellows including Resa Blatman\, Gail Boyajian\, Marcia Ciro\, Robert J. Bradshaw\, Michele Brody\, Anne Eder\, Karen Futral\, Isaac Grenader\, Robert Honstein\, Jenn Houle\, Amy Kaczur\, Andrea LeBlanc\, Susan Quateman\, Katie Pustizzi\, Norah Solorzano\, Erika Sutter\, and Alex Young. \nThe work presented moves across artistic disciplines and mediums—from painting\, photography\, and sculpture to video\, book art\, music\, animation\, and dance—revealing the many ways a living landscape can be seen\, experienced\, interpreted\, and expressed. \nThe exhibition marks an important milestone in a partnership that began with The Great Marsh Concert in 2023\, a collaboration between Manship Artists Residency and Artists for the Great Marsh. The concert brought artists and members of the Great Marsh community together around a shared interest in the landscape and its future. That initial collaboration led to the formation of the Great Marsh Artists Fellowship\, which provides $2\,000 grants to artists to develop projects that premiere at organizations and institutions connected to the Great Marsh. \nNovember 6 – 22\, 2026\nGallery Hours: Friday–Sunday\, 12–5 pm\nOpening Reception: November 7\, 4-6 pm\, Cultural Center at Rocky Neck\, Gloucester\, MA\nSome of the artwork will be for sale. \nAdmission: Donations gratefully accepted to the FREE exhibition. Recommended donations requested for certain programs to pay the performers. Register to attend on exhibition page of Manship website visiting the link below.

SUMMARY:Local Colors Artist Cooperative to Celebrate 37 Years on Main Street
DESCRIPTION:Local Colors Artist Cooperative to Celebrate 37 Years on Main Street\nOn Friday\, November 6\, 2026\, from 6 to 8 p.m.\, Local Colors Artists’ Cooperative invites the\npublic to join in celebrating its 37th anniversary. Since 1989\, Local Colors has operated as an\nongoing center for creativity and commerce in downtown Gloucester.\nWhat does it take for a relatively small business to endure for nearly 4 decades? For Local\nColors’ member artists\, it means taking on the collective responsibility of maintaining a gallery\nand staying active on the Cape Ann art scene while upholding a commitment to their respective\nart forms.\nFor thirty-seven years!\nLocal Colors may defy the categorization of gallery or gift shop. For all of its years\, it has\nsupported artists’ growth in their art and in their business skills. One member\, well-known\nstained-glass artist Donna Amero\, is a founding member. At a recent meeting of the group\, she\,\nstated\, “We are not specifically a gallery or a gift shop. We’re an artists’ cooperative.” Kathy\nBucholska\, jeweler and mixed media artist added\, “As a 36-year member\, I am grateful to have\nhad the opportunity to develop my artistic skills here. It has been wonderful to have an outlet\nfor my jewelry and to expand into mixed media pieces using stones\, fossils\, and found objects.”\nNewer artist\, weaver Susan Alvey appreciates the creative blending involved in an artist\ncooperative. “As artists\, we usually work alone\, but a cooperative provides a supportive\ncommunity that is greater than we could create on our own.” The current membership of Local\nColors spans a wide range of media\, techniques\, subjects\, styles\, and attitudes\, and each artist\nbrings their own way of seeing to his/her chosen medium. The cooperative expands our\nappreciation of other art forms.\nCurrent artist members include: photographers Melissa Cox\, David Katz\, Skip Montello\, and Jim\nSousa; Jewelers Katherine Bagley\, Kathy Bucholska\, Annette Donnelly; painters Carey Jane\nConnor\, Pat Doherty\, Perry McIntosh; glass artists Donna Amero and Mary Woodall-Jappe; fiber\nartist Susan Alvey; ceramicists Peter Black\, Bessie Blum (who also works in mosaic and collage\nand fiber)\, Bob Kulchuk; and creative sculptors Liz Lovell and George Marinakis.\nAs they mark this anniversary\, Local Colors’ artists want to express their gratitude: to their\nguests\, customers\, and visitors\, and especially to the other artist members\, past and present\,\nfor their continued support and inspiration.\nIn addition to the November 6 celebration\, Local Colors will be participating in the City’s \n“From the Deep” event on Saturday\, November 7 with a variety of art demonstrations:\n11 am- 12:30 pm George Marinakis will show the construction of his driftwood sunbursts\n12:30 to 2:00 pm  Many-media artist Bessie Blum will be demonstrating some simple mosaic\ntechniques with materials available for visitors' own make-and-take small mosaics while\n(limited) supplies last.\n2:00 to 3:30 pm  Ingrid Jochimsen will show the construction of her layered wooden boxes.\n3:30 to 5:00 PM Susan Alvey will demonstrate winding a warp for weaving.\nAnd in the meantime\, Local Colors\, 121 Main St\, will be open daily from 10 am to 6 pm\, moving into its 38th year.

SUMMARY:Jeffrey Gaines
DESCRIPTION:Jeffrey Gaines has been heralded for his soul-searching lyrics and his powerful live performances. \nWith only his voice and a guitar for accompaniment\, Gaines has earned a reputation as a captivating performer\, entertaining his audiences worldwide. \nThroughout his three-decade recording career\, Gaines has maintained an impressive standard for soul-searching\, introspective lyrics and catchy\, uplifting melodies. Since bursting on the scene with his self-titled 1992 debut album\, the charismatic singer-songwriter-guitarist has built a beloved body of recordings that’s won him a large and deeply devoted international fan base. He has sold out theaters and clubs throughout North America and Europe. With his compelling live performances gaining high respect\, Gaines was asked to join tours as support act for Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers in Europe\, Tracy Chapman\, and Stevie Nicks with Sheryl Crow\, among others. He will be supporting Roger Daltry on his upcoming tour. \nGaines landed his first record deal shortly after graduating from high school\, and in 1992 released his widely acclaimed debut album Jeffrey Gaines. The eponymous disc won massive amounts of critical and audience acclaim\, spawning the hit “Hero in Me.” Somewhat Slightly Dazed (1994) and Galore (1998) further expanded his audience. Interview magazine described Gaines’ work as “soul-searching” and “refreshingly free of jargon\, sentiment or cliché.” \nIn 2001\, Gaines’ release Always Be yielded a surprise hit in his deeply felt interpretation of Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes”; 2003’s Toward the Sun attracted even more critical accolades\, with Mojo praising the “soul-folkie’s sexy growl” and The Boston Globe declaring that “Gaines’ soulful\, wounded vocals make a case for his being one of pop’s finest singers.” Toward the Sun was followed by a pair of live albums\, the 2004 CD/DVD Jeffrey Gaines Live and 2012’s Live in Europe\, which reflected the deep and abiding rapport that Gaines has with his fans. In 2018\, Gaines released his eighth studio album\, Alright. The album was recorded in Los Angeles with Chris Price\, Val McCallum and Elvis Costello’s Imposters\, Pete Thomas and Davey Faragher. \n“The biggest pleasure I derive from this is playing live\,” Gaines notes. “There’s nothing more satisfying for me than a good live gig. I’m in control\, but the audience can take it to a place that’s higher than I can imagine. When I show up for a live gig\, I don’t need much\, there’s no rider. It’s just\, turn it on\, let the audience in\, and we’ll do the rest. It’s the best job anyone could ever have.” \nWith more than a quarter-century of recording and performing under his belt\, Jeffrey Gaines is enjoying life and music more than ever. “Nowadays\, I know what the job is about so there’s nothing to stress about\,” he says. “I know that there’s people out there who want it\, so I have the opportunity to extend their experience. I guess I could lay my albums all out and see that they tell a story\, but personally I prefer to keep looking forward.”

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.
