"VESSEL" - a celebration of fisheries and the ocean and all that they hold - opens TODAY, August 9th, and TOMORROW, August 10th, from 2-6pm at Cape Ann Collectors!
Consider the stories, aspirations, dangers, and commerce contained in this industry's vessels: pinkies, schooners, trawlers, barques, tugboats, dories, gaff-rigged skiffs and Novi hulls. CAPE ANN COLLECTORS master artists (52 works on display) capture fleets of vessels with full open sails, dockside schooners at day's end, and reflected dories upon the water. These vessels serve as containers for narratives - personal, cultural, historical and metaphorical!
Join us to immerse yourself in VESSEL, a multi-sensory voyage!
