Mural: The Blessing of the Fleet
What interests me most of this mural (in a stairwell at St. Ann’s Church) is not the currently-out-of-fashion but historically correct liturgical garb of the presiding prelate (although, as a priest, I find it interesting), but rather the skyline on the shore. I wonder exactly what view of Gloucester this is supposed to represent? It certainly doesn’t match the current skyline, but obviously things have changed over the decades. The other paintings show that the artist paid attention to detail, so I don’t think he just made it up.

- THE RUMORS ARE TRUE. CAPE ANN THEATRE COLLABORATIVE’S PRODUCTION OF NEIL SIMON’S FARCE ‘RUMORS’ STARTS THIS FRIDAY NIGHT AT GORTON THEATRE! 8 PM.
Reserve your tickets on line at www.catcollaborative.org, by telephone at 978.325.3153, or at the door.
Neil Simon, author of ‘The Odd Couple’, ‘Barefoot in the Park’, ‘Plaza Suite’ and many other comedies, crafted this farce carefully, reworking it until was perfect. Campy and colorful, it is the story of a dinner party gone awry. You will be treated to gunshots, lies, misbehavior, and more—the stuff of comedy in all of its forms. Come and enjoy a night at the theatre and have a good laugh.
Below please find our show poster, our cast photo, as well as a picture of Gloucester residents, Lauren Ashly Suchecki getting a final fitting by costume mistress, Heidi Redston-Rideout. Stay tuned this week for more photos from dress rehearsals.

Helping People Carpool to Fishing Rally in DC.
Hi Joey,
I read an article that many Gloucester area fishermen/woman won’t be attending the rally. Hi fuel prices are definitely a factor. I was wondering if you would be willing to share the good word about encouraging people to carpool to the event, or even carpool to the nearest bus in New Bedford. The United We Fish folks created a Ridebuzz Group to encourage people to share rides and gas costs to help them attend the event.
Ridebuzz Rideshare Group for Rally: http://www.ridebuzz.org/events-group/keep-fishermen-fishing-rally-dc-17010.html
Instructions: http://www.ridebuzz.org/node/2119/17010
A little Background: I recently moved back to Gloucester, and am the founder of www.ridebuzz.org. Ridebuzz.org helps people find and share rides using the web -for one-time trips, road-trips, commutes, and events. We encourage people to ride together to save on fuel costs and reduce emissions, and quite possibly make a new friend or travel companion.
Thanks,
Jeff

After 10 wonderful years with the Local Colors Gallery in Gloucester I decided to sell my artwork from my studio located at 162 Granite St.,Rockport, MA 01966 . Friends suggested the name STUDIO 007. I downgraded it to STUDIO 006.5 and established a website with the same name : www.studio006andahalf.com . On Saturday ,March 24 from 1 to 5 pm the studio will be open to all friends and customers to inspect my latest artistic creations.
