WPA Mural At The Gloucester Visitors Welcoming Center At Stage Fort Park

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Currently this WPA mural is hung in the Gloucester Visitors Welcoming Center.   NOAA is interested in it and it is currently hung improperly for such a valuable piece.  There is simple window framing holding it up and it is tearing along seams where nails are holding up the heavy canvas.  They couldn’t figure out who the artist was.  I wonder if Susan Erony who did the lecture series on the WPA Murals around Gloucester knows. Video at 2PM.
