Tour Sargent Gallery at the Sargent House Museum

Those of you who have attended the Museum of Fine Arts’ exhibit Searching for Sargent, which celebrates the recent gift of John Singer Sargent’s archives to the MFA, may also want to tour the Sargent Gallery at Gloucester’s own Sargent House Museum at 49 Middle Street for a brief tour of Sargent’s art and memorabilia before the Museum closes for the season on September 6, 2015. The Sargent House Museum is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, noon to 4 pm with tours on the hour. The Sargent Gallery tour is available to members free and non-members $6. A full tour of the Sargent House Museum is also available to members free and to non-members $12.  The image below is an example of John Singer Sargent’s art included in the Sargent Gallery tour.
