Out of Africa – A Big Hit
The Opening of the Out of Africa exhibit of photography and paintings by Judith Monteferrante, Rich Seeley and Roger Salisbury was a big hit, and an amazing grand finale guest artists exhibit opening for the first season of Khan Studio and the Good Morning Gloucester Gallery on Rocky Neck. We have never had so many people packed inside and waiting outside the Gallery for an event this season – and we’ve had many very well attended events. A gallery talk was scheduled for 6:00 pm, but the crowd was so thick that it was impossible for the artists to even consider giving a talk. Neighbors watching the flow of people in and out, estimated visitors throughout the evening at between 150 and 200 people. Kudos to the Gloucester Daily Times for putting the opening info on the front page of Saturday’s paper, as many people who came said they had learned about it from the Times. For those of you who wanted to see the exhibit but couldn’t make it to the opening, or those who came but couldn’t see the work because of all the people, the show will be up through October 6, so please come back and see the exhibit daily from noon to 8:00 pm. There are also videos of the animals and a digital frame with a slideshow of many of the photos taken but not physically exhibited in the gallery. This exhibit is truly a great adventure, an African safari that you can vicariously experience through these artists’ work. Don’t miss it.

New Cape Ann Choir School Launched
St. John’s Church, 48 Middle Street, Gloucester launches a new program "Cape Ann Choir School" on Thursdays from 4:30-6 pm. The program is intended to give children of reading age and older the chance to sing a wide variety of great music. The children will rehearse weekly, and have opportunities to play handbells, African drums as well as learn how to read and write music. The children will sing at St. John’s Church 2 Sunday mornings a month as well as a short Evensong service at 6 pm on the first Thursday of each month. The Choir School will also seek to sing in the community as well.
The foundation of the educational program is "Voice for Life" from the Royal School of Church Music in America www.rscmamerica.org. This graded program serves to educate the singers in developing healthy vocal techniques along with learning the language of music. Through singing Children will gain confidence and poise, raise their skill levels in academic and social situations, and learn discipline. Choristers do not need to be Episcopalian nor members of St. John’s Church. The program has received more than $10,000 to fund this initial year, for materials, vestments, training and visiting coaches. The funding has come in both grants from agencies of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts as well as from members and friends of St. John’s Church. This money will also be used to offer partial and full scholarships to the choristers to cover the $100/semester tuition.
No child, desiring to sing will be turned away for lack of finances. Leading the program are St. John’s parish musician Mark Nelson who has been Music Director at the church since 2001. Assisting him is Astrid afKlinteberg who will be a singing leader as well as managing the group. The program is beginning this week, and children come this Thursday, September 22 or Thursday September 29th to register.

Video- Dolphins Swimming off Cape Ann
Pat Emanuele Submits-
Tuesday afternoon as I was leaving Rockport Harbor to head back to the Annisquam River I noticed some chop off in the distance. Assuming it was fish jumping I drove over only to find a large pod of at least one hundred dolphins swimming between Rockport Harbor and the break water.

I met Rick a Big fan of GMG At The State Fish Pier. He enjoys checking it out everyday to see what’s going on here on our Island Paradise. He thought the Sunday Mug Ups were by invitation only. I told him and any Fan like him can come down Sunday Mornings at 10am and get some Coffee and some great food. No obligation to buy anything at all. Rick seems like a great guy and I look forward to talking to him again.

The Other Cape: Cape Ann
Drive (or ride the train) just a half hour northeast of Boston and you’ll hit paradise: the diverse and scenicCape Ann, which likes to market itself as Massachusetts’ “other cape.” Less tourism-driven and therefore more mellow than much of Cape Cod, this little mass of land provides a gem of a getaway for anyone loving water, seafood, arts and a fierce community spirit. Its southern portion,Gloucester [Glóh•ster], achieved hard-won fame a decade ago with the release of the Hollywood film The Perfect Storm (based on the book by Sebastian Junger), which dramatized the story of six commercial fisherman lost at sea in 1991. Today it’s still a vibrant fishing community—the oldest in the country—but also home to spectacular beaches, a thriving music scene, great spots for shopping and eating, and an art colony that dates back to the late 19th century. And, come September 2, its bays will be filled with head-turning vessels for the annual Gloucester Schooner Festival, bringing races, public sails, boat parades and fireworks to town. On the cape’s northern portion isRockport, a village that thrums with life through its quirky boutiques and eateries, quaint B&Bs and spectacular coastlines. Herewith, a handy guide to seeing it all:
