My View of Life on the Dock
I have a DIY wood frame kit (which contains two frames) to give away first come first served. They are 16 x 20″ and appropriate for prints, posters, embroidery and needletpoint as advertised on Amazon. I simply ordered the wrong size and hope someone out there can make use of them. They will be at 44 Main St this weekend Saturday and Sunday (Feb 28 and March 1). Stop in or comment here if interested. FREE!

We stopped by Good Harbor Beach to check out the waves following the storm. It was low tide but still beautiful A number of people had their dogs out there enjoying the day. The footbridge was blocked off as well as unplowed. There seemed to be evidence that the storm had breeched the boardwalk but that didn’t stop some from walking across regardless. I expect the barrier is down by now if it’s been deemed safe.

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.
