SUMMARY:CAM Studio Art: Design and Print the Folly Cove Way
DESCRIPTION:Step into the spirit of the legendary Folly Cove Designers and learn the art of block printing with artist Mary Rhinelander in this four-week course. This class blends design fundamentals\, creative play\, and the rich history of Cape Ann’s iconic design collective. Referencing her unpublished book\, Design and How\, you’ll explore the principles of design that Virginia Lee Demetrios taught her students—selecting a theme and exploring it deeply through clarity of line\, rhythm\, repetition\, and pattern—and you will discover how her timeless ideas can elevate your own artistic voice. Each week builds your confidence as you sketch\, carve\, and print your way towards an original finished artwork. \nPlease note: This class has four sessions. \nMary Rhinelander is a professional artist with an MFA in printmaking. Gloucester is in her DNA\, starting with great-grandparents who spent summers on Eastern Point. She lives in East Gloucester\, in a yellow clapboard house once known as “The Summer Art House” where painter Theresa Bernstein and her painter/printmaker husband\, William Meyerowitz\, spent many decades (starting in 1924). Having purchased her home directly from their estate\, William’s etching press is still happily living in the sun-filled basement studio. Mary has had many solo and group shows and her work is in both public and private collections. She has painted murals\, designed logos and book covers\, illustrated for a variety of publications\, and taught students of all ages. In 2004 she founded Mermade Press\, a fine art card business. With a deep affinity for the Folly Cove Designers and Virginia Lee Demetrios in particular\, it has been Mary’s great pleasure to bring block printing workshops into Cape Ann’s public schools with the support of CAM and the Gloucester Education Foundation.

SUMMARY:Artful Conversations: John Sloan’s “Scavenger Rocks”
DESCRIPTION:Join Us Mid-Day for Artful Conversations \nTake a midday pause and experience one work of art in depth.\nArtful Conversations are informal\, docent-led gallery experiences that invite visitors to slow down\, look closely\, and engage in thoughtful conversation. Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the Education Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of the featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, participants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives\, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversations \nThe program will offer an in‑depth look at John Sloan’s Scavenger Rocks\, a recent acquisition that deepens our understanding of the artist’s long-standing ties to East Gloucester. The presentation begins with a brief overview of Sloan’s stays at the Red Cottage from 1914 to 1918\, a formative period that shaped many of his most compelling Cape Ann paintings. From there\, the talk turns to the granite outcropping near Niles Beach\, drawing on contemporary photographic documentation to illuminate the site’s distinctive forms and its role in Sloan’s artistic process\, offering a vivid\, tangible link between the artwork and the landscape that inspired it. \nDan Duffy and his wife Helene have been Innkeepers at the Beech Tree B&B in Rockport for 16 years. In this capacity\, he takes pride in serving as an ambassador of goodwill for travelers from around the world. He is passionate about showcasing our region’s rich history\, geographical uniqueness\, and artistic treasurers. As a Cape Ann Museum docent\, Dan uses his experience connecting with visitors while deepening his own knowledge of the Museum and of the region’s vibrant social and cultural history.

SUMMARY:Artful Conversations: “Baptism\,” by Anne Rearick
DESCRIPTION:Join Us Mid-Day for Artful Conversations \nTake a midday pause and experience one work of art in depth. \nArtful Conversations are informal\, docent-led gallery experiences that invite visitors to slow down\, look closely\, and engage in thoughtful conversation. Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the Education Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of the featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, participants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives\, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversations \nThis presentation explores Baptism by photographer Anne Rearick\, whose work is featured in a special museum exhibition. Rooted in the tradition of documentary photography\, Rearick distinguishes herself through her long-term relationships with the people and places she photographs\, including the Gloucester community. Through Baptism and related works\, she captures the importance of shared public spaces as places where people gather\, build connections\, create traditions\, and foster a sense of belonging. Her photographs reveal how community life unfolds over time\, preserving collective experiences and cultural memory. \nAlthough Miriam Weinstein has lived on Cape Ann for more than three decades\, she loves finding new places and new stories and sharing them with visitors. She was a painting major in college and thought of herself as a visual person until she became\, first\, a documentary filmmaker and then a journalist. Having spent the bulk of her professional life as a writer\, she now thinks she might be a word person after all. She was a staff member at North Shore Weeklies newspapers for many years. Her book\, Yiddish: A Nation of Words\, won the National Jewish Book award. Her book\, The Surprising Power of Family Meals gave her a platform to lecture and consult on the topic internationally. Miriam likes changing gears\, which fits well with CAM’s varied collection. She gives tours to adults\, family groups\, and kids. She enjoys moving quickly and making sure that everyone stays engaged. She loves the fact that tours can be very personalized. Each tour is different\, depending on the interests of the docent and the guests\, as well as the changing exhibits. Much like Cape Ann\, Museum visits are creative\, personable\, idiosyncratic\, and rich in beauty and history.

SUMMARY:Artful Conversations: Conversations between Regionalism and Modernism
DESCRIPTION:Join Us Mid-Day for Artful Conversations \nTake a midday pause and experience one work of art in depth.\nArtful Conversations are informal\, docent-led gallery experiences that invite visitors to slow down\, look closely\, and engage in thoughtful conversation. Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the Education Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of the featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, participants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives\, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversations \nJoin us in exploring the dynamic crossroads of American Modernism and American Regionalism—two movements that shaped the artistic identity of Cape Ann. Using a sketch made by Stuart Davis\, Sketch–Church Tower (1916) and Gifford Beal’s Sword Fisherman (1930) as vivid touchpoints\, we’ll dive into how artists responded to sweeping cultural change after World War I\, when Modernists embraced bold experimentation and broke from traditional representation. We’ll also trace the rise of Regionalism during the Great Depression\, when many painters turned toward detailed\, narrative scenes of rural life and local character. This conversation will illuminate the tension between these movements\, their relevance to Cape Ann’s artistic legacy\, and the enduring impact they continue to have on how we see and interpret American art. \nAlong with being a docent at the Cape Ann Museum\, Tobi Klein is a mixed media artist living and working in Rockport\, MA. Upon receiving an MFA\, Tobi taught painting and drawing at Rochester Institute of Technology. After moving to Boston\, she managed a gallery for contemporary crafts while\, at the same time\, running a successful small business. Tobi also worked with elementary school teachers in Arlington\, MA\, implementing curriculum-based art projects at her daughter’s school. She volunteered in classrooms on a regular basis\, putting an emphasis on group dynamic skills. \nLife events and a move to Cape Ann motivated her to rediscover her artistic\, creative self. She is revisiting her love of building layers through experimentation with varied materials and techniques. As she learned about the art\, history\, and culture of Cape Ann\, Tobi wanted to be part of this inspiring and unique region and its Museum. This led her to the Cape Ann Museum docent program – where learning never ends!

SUMMARY:Artful Conversations: Conversations between Regionalism and Modernism
DESCRIPTION:Join Us Mid-Day for Artful Conversations \nTake a midday pause and experience one work of art in depth.\nArtful Conversations are informal\, docent-led gallery experiences that invite visitors to slow down\, look closely\, and engage in thoughtful conversation. Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the Education Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of the featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, participants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives\, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversations \nJoin us in exploring the dynamic crossroads of American Modernism and American Regionalism—two movements that shaped the artistic identity of Cape Ann. Using a sketch made by Stuart Davis\, Sketch–Church Tower (1916) and Gifford Beal’s Sword Fisherman (1930) as vivid touchpoints\, we’ll dive into how artists responded to sweeping cultural change after World War I\, when Modernists embraced bold experimentation and broke from traditional representation. We’ll also trace the rise of Regionalism during the Great Depression\, when many painters turned toward detailed\, narrative scenes of rural life and local character. This conversation will illuminate the tension between these movements\, their relevance to Cape Ann’s artistic legacy\, and the enduring impact they continue to have on how we see and interpret American art. \nAlong with being a docent at the Cape Ann Museum\, Tobi Klein is a mixed media artist living and working in Rockport\, MA. Upon receiving an MFA\, Tobi taught painting and drawing at Rochester Institute of Technology. After moving to Boston\, she managed a gallery for contemporary crafts while\, at the same time\, running a successful small business. Tobi also worked with elementary school teachers in Arlington\, MA\, implementing curriculum-based art projects at her daughter’s school. She volunteered in classrooms on a regular basis\, putting an emphasis on group dynamic skills. \nLife events and a move to Cape Ann motivated her to rediscover her artistic\, creative self. She is revisiting her love of building layers through experimentation with varied materials and techniques. As she learned about the art\, history\, and culture of Cape Ann\, Tobi wanted to be part of this inspiring and unique region and its Museum. This led her to the Cape Ann Museum docent program – where learning never ends!
