Seaside Escapes: The Art & Architecture of the New England Coast

From artist colonies to robber baron “summer cottages,” the New England shoreline has inspired countless creative works. This program looks at seascapes by beloved American artists including Winslow Homer and Edward Hopper as well as the over-the-top elegance of Newport, RI summer homes designed for the titans of industry in the nineteenth century. Gloucester's eccentric summer retreat Beauport is also featured.

This program is part of the I am Culturally Curious series presented by Jane Oneail.

Registration is required. Attend in-person in the Levenson Community Room or online via Zoom.
