15 bags of trash collected at the state fish pier & head of the harbor for Earth Day cleanup

“We had a great group of volunteers that came out and worked hard and fast today to collect over 15 bags of trash in a relatively short period of time at the State Fish Pier and at the head of the harbor. For people who want to do their own part and can’t be part of a group cleanup, you can pick up yellow bags at the DPW, collect trash, and report the location of the full bags using the app SeeClickFix.” – Jamie Mathison- One Ocean Shop

Lunch At Cape Ann Pizza

We love Cape Ann Pizza on Eastern Ave in Essex especially for lunch but it was a special treat for us to stop by one day while our grandson was visiting. They have perfect kids meal options as well as delicious salads, sandwiches and pizza. Schooner had a hot dog, GMG Jim had a chef salad, I had a meatball sub and our daughter chose Jimmy’s wrap. Her wrap was large enough to bring home for another lunch the next day. The meatball sub is in my top 3 list. They are always friendly and efficient as well as busy.

Amy Solomon | Magic and Offerings at Jane Deering Gallery opening April 28th

PRESS RELEASE

Jane Deering gallery is pleased to present Amy Solomon’s paintings on paper and mixed media on wood in a solo show titled Magic and Offerings opening April 28th, 2023, with a Reception with the artist on Sunday April 30th from 3-5pm. Solomon speaks about her work on paper as daily meditations in paint

“These works are made with paints, medium and inks applied to the paper with marks, dots and drips. Over the past two years this has become my form of personal daily meditation practice: a way to connect with myself through the materials. What is in this gallery are remnants of the search and process. A shadow from a dance,” and her work in mixed media on wood as frozen disintegrations. “Again, what interests me is the power contained in the materials. Objects, colors and textures come together as a visual poem.”

Amy Solomon

Amy Solomon holds a BFA in Painting from Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Her work is in collections in the United States, Greece, and Switzerland.
