Artist Deborah Quinan Solo Exhibition Where Color Breathes at Jane Deering Gallery

Posted on by Catherine

Mark your calendars, news from the artist and Jane Deering Gallery-

‘deborah quinan | where color breathes’

from March 6-29

with an Opening Reception on Saturday March 7th 2026 from 2:00-4:00pm.

Quinan writes:

“I paint loosely from intuition, finding joy in the discovery of
layers of color coming together to form a cohesive whole. I enjoy the freedom to explore
paints, color and composition without having to worry about incorporating objects in the
painting; and if I do, abstraction gives me permission to render those objects in a new
and unique way.”

The artist has exhibited extensively in both Boston and the North Shore and is a
affiliated with several established art organizations. Recent travels include a painting
retreat in Provence, France. Quinan maintains studios in Swampscott, MA and North
Sandwich NH. Contact dquinanart@gmail.com .

Author Susan Wadia-Ells on cancer as a metabolic disease and why more younger women are developing breast cancer | author talk at Sawyer Free Library

Print and share flyer! Wadia Ells and SFL present a reminder about the upcoming talk Thursday Feb 26, 2026

Cancer as a Metabolic Disease
Why More Younger Women Are Developing Breast Cancer

Thursday Feb 26, 2026   5- 6:30 pm
Sawyer Free Library, Gloucester, MA  

Is cancer a haphazard genetic disease that still appears to be poorly understood by the cancer industry? Or is cancer actually a metabolic disease, created by logical biological conditions?  If so, what is causing so much more breast cancer in younger women today?

Dr. Susan Wadia-Ells, author of Busting Breast Cancer: Five Simple Steps to Keep Breast Cancer out of Your Body, will discuss this critical question at the Sawyer Free Library on Thursday February 26, 5-6:30pm.  

Wadia-Ells, a Manchester, by the Sea resident, is an investigative journalist with a background in political economy and women’s studies. In 2008, continuing to lose too many friends to metastatic breast cancer, she founded the National Breast Cancer Prevention Project to fund her research, while also writing the “Honest Health” column for the Gloucester Daily Times.

Eagles At Salisbury

Posted on by Pat D

We were delighted to find no fewer than 3 eagles at Salisbury Beach State Reservation recently. If you keep your eyes peeled at this time of the year, you can often spot bald eagles. Each of these appeared to be younger eagles, making it a little harder to spot without the signature white head and tail. One was perched at the boat ramp, keeping a careful eye on the squawking gulls. This one registered displeasure with the fly-bys vocally which was pretty impressive and distinct.
