The Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation presents sonic artist and maestro of the pipe-organ Peter Krasinski accompanying two silent film classics, ALICE IN WONDERLAND (filmed on Cape Ann in 1915!) and the TOLL OF THE SEA (1922) on Saturday, November 2 at 7:30pm at the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church on Middle Street. Accessible side entrance at 10 Church Street.

This annual classic silent movie event is great fun for the whole family, presented in collaboration with the Cape Ann Community Cinema.  Maestro Krasinski is world-famous for his brilliant, improvised accompaniment of silent films and will perform on the mighty 1893 Hutchings/Fisk pipe organ in our historic Meetinghouse.

With Summer slamming to a close and it being cold and raw out we’re gonna do a roundup of the best French Onion Soup around town, probably including all of Cape Ann.

Criteria which I think we can all agree on- served in a proper French Onion soup crock, the cheese be the right mix and crusted over the top, the broth be hearty and most importantly, flavor.

Here’s Oak To Ember. Please nominate local place where you think they have great French Onion soup for us to try. Let me know where you think we should go next.

Big big news from CATA for the holiday season! FREE rides. Check it out.

Received the following from an FOB who prefers to remain anonymous (but thank you!) regarding Jeanne Sullivan and Louise Welch’s art work. Using CapeAnnMA Facebook post for information.

I have a bunch here at the dock 95 East Main Street if you’d like to purchase one, otherwise we can ship them when you order at – https://gloucesterapparel.square.site/
