Gloucester, MA — March 2026 — Rocky Neck Art Colony, Inc. is pleased to announce the inaugural March Music Month, a new pilot program featuring a series of live musical performances curated by Cape Ann Guitar Society. Concerts will take place each week in March at the Cultural Center at Rocky Neck, located at 6 Wonson Street, Gloucester, an intimate and historically significant venue known for its exceptional acoustics.

March Music Month expands Rocky Neck Art Colony’s artistic offerings by introducing live music into a space traditionally dedicated to visual arts. Past performances revealed the Cultural Center to be a warm, inviting setting for concerts, inspiring the organization to envision this program as an annual event with future opportunities for expanded performances and educational workshops.

“This series is part of our broader effort to welcome new and more diverse audiences to Rocky Neck,” said Elizabeth Carey, CEO. “Music is a powerful, accessible art form, and these performances invite both longtime supporters and first-time visitors to experience the Cultural Center in a new way.”

The series features five performances showcasing a wide range of musical styles.

Sunday, March 8 with Daniel Villela on Classical Guitar at 3:00pm

Sunday, March 15 with Jason Ji on Fingerstyle Guitar at 3:30pm

Sunday March 22 with Steve Lacey on Jazz Guitar at 3pm

Saturday, March 28 with Andrew Cohen on Blues Guitar 5pm workshop; 7:30pm concert.

Rocky Neck Art Colony is proud to partner with Cape Ann Guitar Society, a newly formed 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to elevating local guitarists and bringing global talent to Cape Ann.

In addition to March Music Month, the Cultural Center will host “Women by Amy Sudarsky: Nude Portraits from the Last Decade,” on view from March 4 through March 29. The exhibition features life-size paintings of women who meet the viewer’s gaze with pride, warmth, and quiet strength. Sudarsky, Artistic Director of Rocky Neck Art Colony, has previously taught drawing and painting at Boston University School of Visual Arts and Lesley University College of Art and Design. The exhibition will be open during concert dates and by appointment throughout March.

A modest admission fee will be charged for concerts ($15 for RNAC Members; $20 for Non-Members). Proceeds will help support this pilot program, with the goal of building momentum and establishing March Music Month as a signature annual event.

Good morning Joey:

I wonder if you can help me find someone from Gloucester that I knew back in 1975.  I met Jack O’Hanley when he and his then wife Kathy Schubeck and I went to work for the Trustees of Reservations at the Cornelius & Mine Crane Wildlife Refuge in Ipswich / Essex.  I was appointed as the “resident ranger” and Kathy was the naturalist.  Jack and Kathy would come to Hog (aka -Choate) Island every weekend and stay at the residence where I lived for five months.  What a summer we had.  Jack was such a character and cooked up a storm.  He loved his beer, and the brand I cannot recall.

I hope you can shed some light on my quest, afterall, it’s only been 50 years………….

Best Regards, Neil Courtney, Camden Maine
