Willie Alexander Music on Meetinghouse Green

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 12, 2022

WILLIE ALEXANDER PERFORMS AT MUSIC ON MEETINGHOUSE GREEN ON FRIDAY, AUGUST 19
Willie Alexander, punk music legend, musical innovator, and artistic icon, returns to Music on Meetinghouse Green with his band
for a rocking evening at the corner of Middle and Church Streets at 6:00 p.m.

The stars come out on Meetinghouse Green as Gloucester’s Willie ‘Loco’ Alexander shares his legendary talent as a singer, songwriter
and keyboardist. With his roots in Boston’s punk rock scene of the 70’s and 80’s, Willie’s musical career has flourished for more than 50 years.
Whether as a band member with the Lost, Bagatelle, Grass Menagerie and the post-Lou Reed Velvet Underground, or as front man for his own
series of bands, Willie’s enduring popularity is a reflection of his unique musical voice and artistic vision. A true artist, Willie has expanded his
work to other mediums including soundtracks for local filmmaker Henry Ferrini, collage and painting.

Your free-will donations will benefit the Grace Center, a day resource center for men and women offering a safe and supportive environment
in Gloucester, Salem and Beverly. The evening’s food vendor is Crepes du Jour with freshly made sweet and savory crepes.  

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Now in its seventh season, Music on Meetinghouse Green features nine free Friday evening concerts from July 8 to September 9. Performances
are held on the Green with great music, favorite foods from local vendors, and a different North Shore non-profit organization benefits each week
through free-will donations from the audience. Concerts begin at 6:00 p.m. and conclude at 8:30 p.m. Some chairs will be provided and audience
members are welcome to bring their own lawn chairs or blankets. Picnic with delicious local food from our vendors or bring your own. Performances
are handicapped accessible and parking on the Green is limited to persons with disabilities.

Rosettis in Beverly Worth The Ride

We decided to go back to Rosettis on Brimbal Ave in Beverly for dinner last week. It had been recommended by our friends Chris and Charleen and we have been once but hadn’t been back in quite a while. There are so many fine restaurants right here in Gloucester, it’s hard to leave town for another but it was a special occasion and we have been wanting to return here for this Italian themed dining experience. We were not disappointed.

We had the half antipasti board as an appetizer and it was plenty for the two of us. I tried a pomegranate martini (very tasty) and Jim had a pinot grigio. There was a surf and turf special which I ordered and Jim got the Chicken Braciolettini with red sauce. My filet was done to perfection and I appreciated that our server Dan explained that the kitchen prefers to prepare the meat medium rare, which is my preference as well. After we enjoyed our entrees, I had an Irish coffee (not bad for an Italian joint) and Jim ordered the sorbet. In the end, the trip “off island” for this meal was well worth it.

It was busy even for a weeknight, so I would recommend reservations. There are a variety of seating options: bar, table booth, round, patio etc. There was plenty of staff which is tricky for establishments these days. The servings were nicely paced; I did not feel rushed at all. Servers were attentive and helpful. I was happy we made the choice to go to Rosettis.

Leigh Slingluff Solo Show at North Shore Arts

August 9 – 21, 2022
11 Pirate’s Lane, Gloucester, MA 01930

 Open and free to the public

To see a memorable exhibit of tiny Cape Ann seascapes, landscapes, and skyscapes by local artist Leigh Slingluff stop by the North Shore Arts Assocation. Her exhibition is currently on display through August 21, 2022. These little paintings are gems and one can’t help but own one and take it home.  

Leigh finds inspiration for her plein air paintings when exploring outdoors with her dog & husband, swimming & snorkeling at local beaches, gardening, and just observing the sea and sky in Cape Ann daily. She paints outside with watercolor, gouache, and oils, and when she isn’t outside, she can be found painting in her studio in Gloucester. She is a juried Artist Member of the North Shore Arts Association and the Rockport Art Association & Museum. To experience more of her work please visit: leighslingluff.com, and her most current works are posted on her Instagram:@galobster. 

“All of the paintings in my solo show were painted en plein air, at locations around Cape Ann; many at Old Garden Beach in Rockport. I work quickly and paint from direct observation, often with a palette knife and always with colors mixed in the moment.” – Leigh Slingluff 

All are welcome! North Shore Arts Association is located at 11 Pirate’s Lane, Gloucester, MA 01930. For more information about events please call (978) 283-1857 or email arts@nsarts.org. Visiting hours are Monday – Saturday, 10 AM – 5 PM and Sundays 12 – 4 PM.
