Meet the FAMG Team! 👋

We're kicking off a new series introducing the people behind the Fine Arts Museum of Gloucester!

First up is Shandie Covington, our Executive Director!

From keeping the museum running to welcoming new ideas and connecting with our community, Shandie helps make it all happen.

We asked her a couple of questions about what she loves most about FAMG and what she wishes more people knew about the museum.

Take a minute to get to know Shandie, and stay tuned as we introduce the rest of the team!

Gloucester’s waterways were once its highways.

Steamboats, ferries, wharves, oyster boats, and working docks connected communities, carried goods and passengers, and supported livelihoods throughout the county.

Explore Working Water in Six Scenes, One Place and discover how life in Gloucester has long been shaped by the water.

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we recognize the people whose history on this land reaches back long before Gloucester had its present name or boundaries.

The First Inhabitants scene in Six Scenes, One Place: The Story of Gloucester begins our story with the Algonquian-speaking communities who lived along these rivers and waterways as part of the Powhatan Chiefdom.

Today is an opportunity to recognize that Gloucester’s history did not begin with English arrival.
