Owner and artist Pauline Bresnahan has spent more than two decades at the helm of her store, Pauline’s Gifts, a cherished fixture of the Cape Ann community in Massachusetts. Her work embodies dedication not just to business but to service. “Pauline has served the communities of Cape Ann for over 26 years,” said Glen Bresnahan of Pauline’s Gifts.

Beyond her role as a retailer, Bresnahan sits on the Gloucester tourism board and Discover Gloucester, using her platform to advocate for local artisans and small businesses. She is also known for spearheading Operation Troop Support, delivering supplies to women serving overseas — a mission that highlights her compassion and civic spirit.

Through art, entrepreneurship and activism, Bresnahan has created a model of what it means to blend business with community impact, proving that local retail can drive lasting change. Her dedication to retail and her community has earned her the title of finalist in the 2021 and 2024 Retailer Excellence Awards.

I love a great concert in the city! It has been a while since I’ve been to the Orpheum Theatre, but I was lucky enough to be treated to Sarah McLachlan last night and it was amazing. Her voice is truly breathtaking.
