Art Exhibition and Sale Supports Land Conservation
Greenbelt’s Annual Art in the Barn Event to Take Place June 14 & 15

Essex, Massachusetts — Discover the intersection of creativity and conservation at Essex County Greenbelt Association’s annual Art in the Barn event taking place this June 14-15. Now in its third decade, this popular event has long been recognized as one of the North Shore’s premier art exhibitions and sales, featuring a juried selection of works by 130 regional artists. Thousands of artworks will be on display, including paintings, photographs, sculpture, ceramics, woodworking, and more.

Art in the Barn celebrates artistic talent while also supporting Greenbelt’s vital conservation mission to protect natural land and working farms across Essex County. Artists contribute 50 percent or more of their proceeds to Greenbelt’s conservation work.

This event takes place on Allyn Cox Reservation in Essex, a stunning 31-acre property with open fields and trails on the edge of the Great Marsh and the Essex River. A beautiful destination for a day trip to view art, explore a captivating landscape, and support Greenbelt.

You may have seen Joann Mackenzie’s article about my new book, “The Faithful” in the GDT today. She calls it a “Dan Brownish conspiracy reminiscent of a high tech The Da Vinci Code” adding that it’s “deeply humanitarian, even romantic” and “If you are a 21st century digital citizen, then fasten your seatbelts, you’re in for a ride.”

See full article here: https://www.gloucestertimes.com/news/peter-van-ness-writes-a-new-life-chapter/article_d3c04472-0e3d-11ef-b34b-334d95d90aaa.html

Most of the action in “The Faithful” takes place in Cambridge, with scenes in Beverly and Gloucester (at Good Harbor Beach).

I’d be honored to send you a copy, but I don’t have your mailing address. Can you send it to me?

Vickie and I are thrilled that you’re giving The Cut some love. They’ve done everything right in our view. They used Jon Coretto, whom I suggested to install their extraordinary sound system. You might remember him from this GMG post 10 years ago https://goodmorninggloucester.com/2014/04/04/big-city-concert-sound-just-down-the-road-in-beverly/.  And they hired Jeff Johnson, the guy who did sound for 9 Wallis and our 2020 outdoor shows in Manchester.

Please give our love to Gloucester!
