Come one, come all to the Gloucester Public Schools Arts Festival on Saturday, May 9 from 11am – 3pm.

This fabulous showcase of art, music, theater, dance and technology from grades pre-school through 12th will take place throughout downtown Gloucester all day long. A ukulele concert, drama workshop, poetry reading, ballroom dance demonstration, art displays, and an outdoor community painting project are just a few of the day’s offerings.

Ride the Water Shuttle

Cape Ann Harbor Tours, Inc.

With nice weather finally here, get out on the water and see the sights!  Hop on, hop off.  Grab a bit to eat, check out the galleries on Rocky Neck, enjoy a cocktail or an ice cream, etc.

The prices can’t be beat and season passes are now available.

Pick #3

Visit Long Hill Gardens in Beverly

As a member of the Trustees of the Reservation, Long Hill is a must see at some point, and why not this weekend?

If you’ve never been, Long Hill is a glorious 114 acres of gardens, trails, and wooded areas.
