SUMMARY:Piece-by-Piece: The Art of Assemblage\, Where 1 + 1 = 3
DESCRIPTION:Discover the magic when individual objects\, no matter how similar or different\, are joined into an entirely new work at the Cove Gallery in Rocky Neck \nAugust 27\, 2026 – September 20\, 2026 Cove Gallery\nOpening reception: Thursday\, August 27 from 5 to 8pm \nGloucester\, MA — The act of assembly reveals\, to the artist\, new forms\, new relationships of color and shape. Perhaps another unit can be placed over here\, or a new piece added there\, giving a fresh and unexpected whole. These works by five Rocky Neck members explore assemblage\, in its broadest sense. Using materials ranging from wire\, corrugated cardboard\, reclaimed wood and hardware\, to toy figures\, rocks\, and recycled flameworked glass the pieces become\, in the hands of the contributing artists\, surprising and delightful 3-D works. \nThe artists in this show include: \nDavid Covert has been involved in art making for nearly fifty years. Basically self-taught\, by virtue of continuing to draw\, paint\, and occasionally sculpt since the late sixties. Much of his work has been in the two-dimensional arts\, dominated by drawing and painting and printmaking. His training has been mostly informal\, interspersed with individual classes at Boston area art schools including the Museum School of the MFA\, Mass College of Art\, and the late DeCordova Museum school. For more information see https://www.davidcovert.art/. \nBrian Murphy graduated from Rhode Island School of Design\, then off to NYC honing agency skills. He settled in Beverly\, Massachusetts\, where he continues to work with ad agencies and individual clients. In between he still finds time to create original artwork made from scrap materials. To learn more\, visit https://brianmurphyartanddesign.com/. \nMarion Powers is a mixed media artist and a painter who lives and works in Manchester-by-the-Sea. Her assemblages incorporate objects collected during her travels. Her work begins with a found frame. She composes intuitively using an evolving collection of jewelry\, watch parts\, hardware\, book covers and other objects that she has collected over time. Some pieces have personal history\, while others are chosen for their beauty or character or the story they suggest. She transforms these elements into compositions I call “jewels”. What was once discarded or put aside becomes precious. She creates these works to encourage others to look for beauty in the ordinary and overlooked objects and to recognize the potential in everyday objects and to\, hopefully\, inspire curiosity\, reflection and a deeper appreciation for the unexpected. Marion earned her BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Her work is held in private collections in New York City\, Cape Ann and beyond. \nJudy Robinson-Cox creates miniature shadowboxes\, collages and small assembled sculptures using a variety of found objects and tiny plastic people. She creates these light-hearted artworks to make people smile and appreciate the world in which we live. She attended NYU School of Fine Arts and earned a BFA from the University of Connecticut with additional classes at Montserrat College of Art. For more information\, see https://judy.robinson-cox.com/. \nBeth Williams explores the qualities of glass and color. Using light and transparency in surprising ways along with layering color on color helps her to create unusual contemporary beads\, jewelry and small sculptures. She gleans inspiration from her gardens\, the ever-changing light on the ocean\, the seascapes that surround her … anywhere colors collide in nature. To learn more\, see https://www.bethwilliams.com/. \nAbout the Rocky Neck Art Colony\nRocky Neck Art Colony (RNAC)\, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization\, nurtures excellence in the arts through exhibitions\, workshops\, residencies and vibrant cultural events for its members and the public. On picturesque Rocky Neck in Gloucester\, Massachusetts\, RNAC operates three exhibition spaces\, open to the public for free: The Cultural Center at Rocky Neck (6 Wonson Street); The Salted Cod Arthouse (53 Rocky Neck Ave.)\, a partnership gallery and café; and Cove Gallery (37 Rocky Neck Ave.)\, open seasonally in the former gallery of local artists Gordon and Judith Goetemann.

Using materials ranging from wire\, corrugated cardboard\, reclaimed wood and hardware\, to toy figures\, rocks\, and recycled flameworked glass the pieces become\, in the hands of the contributing artists\, surprising and delightful 3-D works. \nThe artists in this show include: \nDavid Covert has been involved in art making for nearly fifty years. Basically self-taught\, by virtue of continuing to draw\, paint\, and occasionally sculpt since the late sixties. Much of his work has been in the two-dimensional arts\, dominated by drawing and painting and printmaking. His training has been mostly informal\, interspersed with individual classes at Boston area art schools including the Museum School of the MFA\, Mass College of Art\, and the late DeCordova Museum school. For more information see https://www.davidcovert.art/. \nBrian Murphy graduated from Rhode Island School of Design\, then off to NYC honing agency skills. He settled in Beverly\, Massachusetts\, where he continues to work with ad agencies and individual clients. In between he still finds time to create original artwork made from scrap materials. To learn more\, visit https://brianmurphyartanddesign.com/. \nMarion Powers is a mixed media artist and a painter who lives and works in Manchester-by-the-Sea. Her assemblages incorporate objects collected during her travels. Her work begins with a found frame. She composes intuitively using an evolving collection of jewelry\, watch parts\, hardware\, book covers and other objects that she has collected over time. Some pieces have personal history\, while others are chosen for their beauty or character or the story they suggest. She transforms these elements into compositions I call “jewels”. What was once discarded or put aside becomes precious. She creates these works to encourage others to look for beauty in the ordinary and overlooked objects and to recognize the potential in everyday objects and to\, hopefully\, inspire curiosity\, reflection and a deeper appreciation for the unexpected. Marion earned her BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Her work is held in private collections in New York City\, Cape Ann and beyond. \nJudy Robinson-Cox creates miniature shadowboxes\, collages and small assembled sculptures using a variety of found objects and tiny plastic people. She creates these light-hearted artworks to make people smile and appreciate the world in which we live. She attended NYU School of Fine Arts and earned a BFA from the University of Connecticut with additional classes at Montserrat College of Art. For more information\, see https://judy.robinson-cox.com/. \nBeth Williams explores the qualities of glass and color. Using light and transparency in surprising ways along with layering color on color helps her to create unusual contemporary beads\, jewelry and small sculptures. She gleans inspiration from her gardens\, the ever-changing light on the ocean\, the seascapes that surround her … anywhere colors collide in nature.

SUMMARY:Newburyport Art presents Fleeting Moments: Photography by Geordie Vining
DESCRIPTION:Newburyport Art (NAA) is excited to announce Fleeting Moments: Spontaneous Photography by Featured Artist Geordie Vining. \nGeordie Vining has worked as the Senior Project Manager for the Newburyport Planning Office for 25 years. Among many projects\, Geordie managed the creation of the Clipper City Rail Trail from concept to completion. He also managed design and construction of the Senior Community Center\, the John F. Cutter Jr. Fire Station\, and the Harbormaster Visiting Boater Facility\, as well as co-founded the award-winning Newburyport Black History Initiative. \nOutside of his work for the Newburyport Planning Office\, Geordie is a photographer who focuses on capturing a range of unplanned photographs of unique “fleeting moments.” Vining writes\, “Such pictures can speak to the human condition\, tell a story\, and hold on to a glimpse of fleeting beauty.” His photographs are nearly all spontaneous and unplanned\, ranging from close-ups to wide shots\, and from vibrant colors to classic black-and-white. The images are of people; townscapes and cityscapes; landscapes; the natural world; and abstract or ambiguous scenes. Many of the pictures are of his home in New England\, but also from other parts of the United States\, as well as countries like Norway\, Portugal\, Canada\, France\, England\, Italy\, Croatia\, Japan\, and a growing list of others. Fleeting moments transform into art. \nJoin us for a free opening reception on Wednesday\, September 2\, 5:00pm-7:00pm. Fleeting Moments: Spontaneous Photography is partially supported by the Newburyport Cultural Council\, West Newbury Cultural Council\, and Mass Cultural Council. \nThe galleries are free and open to the public Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00am–5:00pm. Newburyport Art is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. The ground-floor Hills Gallery has an accessible entrance. More information\, as well as an online gallery is available at newburyportart.org. \nFounded in 1948\, Newburyport Art is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and exhibiting members’ work and to providing art education and access to the visual arts for the entire community.

SUMMARY:Piece-by-Piece: The Art of Assemblage\, Where 1 + 1 = 3
DESCRIPTION:Discover the magic when individual objects\, no matter how similar or different\, are joined into an entirely new work at the Cove Gallery in Rocky Neck \nAugust 27\, 2026 – September 20\, 2026 Cove Gallery\nOpening reception: Thursday\, August 27 from 5 to 8pm \nGloucester\, MA — The act of assembly reveals\, to the artist\, new forms\, new relationships of color and shape. Perhaps another unit can be placed over here\, or a new piece added there\, giving a fresh and unexpected whole. These works by five Rocky Neck members explore assemblage\, in its broadest sense. Using materials ranging from wire\, corrugated cardboard\, reclaimed wood and hardware\, to toy figures\, rocks\, and recycled flameworked glass the pieces become\, in the hands of the contributing artists\, surprising and delightful 3-D works. \nThe artists in this show include: \nDavid Covert has been involved in art making for nearly fifty years. Basically self-taught\, by virtue of continuing to draw\, paint\, and occasionally sculpt since the late sixties. Much of his work has been in the two-dimensional arts\, dominated by drawing and painting and printmaking. His training has been mostly informal\, interspersed with individual classes at Boston area art schools including the Museum School of the MFA\, Mass College of Art\, and the late DeCordova Museum school. For more information see https://www.davidcovert.art/. \nBrian Murphy graduated from Rhode Island School of Design\, then off to NYC honing agency skills. He settled in Beverly\, Massachusetts\, where he continues to work with ad agencies and individual clients. In between he still finds time to create original artwork made from scrap materials. To learn more\, visit https://brianmurphyartanddesign.com/. \nMarion Powers is a mixed media artist and a painter who lives and works in Manchester-by-the-Sea. Her assemblages incorporate objects collected during her travels. Her work begins with a found frame. She composes intuitively using an evolving collection of jewelry\, watch parts\, hardware\, book covers and other objects that she has collected over time. Some pieces have personal history\, while others are chosen for their beauty or character or the story they suggest. She transforms these elements into compositions I call “jewels”. What was once discarded or put aside becomes precious. She creates these works to encourage others to look for beauty in the ordinary and overlooked objects and to recognize the potential in everyday objects and to\, hopefully\, inspire curiosity\, reflection and a deeper appreciation for the unexpected. Marion earned her BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Her work is held in private collections in New York City\, Cape Ann and beyond. \nJudy Robinson-Cox creates miniature shadowboxes\, collages and small assembled sculptures using a variety of found objects and tiny plastic people. She creates these light-hearted artworks to make people smile and appreciate the world in which we live. She attended NYU School of Fine Arts and earned a BFA from the University of Connecticut with additional classes at Montserrat College of Art. For more information\, see https://judy.robinson-cox.com/. \nBeth Williams explores the qualities of glass and color. Using light and transparency in surprising ways along with layering color on color helps her to create unusual contemporary beads\, jewelry and small sculptures. She gleans inspiration from her gardens\, the ever-changing light on the ocean\, the seascapes that surround her … anywhere colors collide in nature.

SUMMARY:Newburyport Art presents Fleeting Moments: Photography by Geordie Vining
DESCRIPTION:Newburyport Art (NAA) is excited to announce Fleeting Moments: Spontaneous Photography by Featured Artist Geordie Vining. \nGeordie Vining has worked as the Senior Project Manager for the Newburyport Planning Office for 25 years. Among many projects\, Geordie managed the creation of the Clipper City Rail Trail from concept to completion. He also managed design and construction of the Senior Community Center\, the John F. Cutter Jr. Fire Station\, and the Harbormaster Visiting Boater Facility\, as well as co-founded the award-winning Newburyport Black History Initiative. \nOutside of his work for the Newburyport Planning Office\, Geordie is a photographer who focuses on capturing a range of unplanned photographs of unique “fleeting moments.” Vining writes\, “Such pictures can speak to the human condition\, tell a story\, and hold on to a glimpse of fleeting beauty.” His photographs are nearly all spontaneous and unplanned\, ranging from close-ups to wide shots\, and from vibrant colors to classic black-and-white. The images are of people; townscapes and cityscapes; landscapes; the natural world; and abstract or ambiguous scenes. Many of the pictures are of his home in New England\, but also from other parts of the United States\, as well as countries like Norway\, Portugal\, Canada\, France\, England\, Italy\, Croatia\, Japan\, and a growing list of others. Fleeting moments transform into art. \nJoin us for a free opening reception on Wednesday\, September 2\, 5:00pm-7:00pm. Fleeting Moments: Spontaneous Photography is partially supported by the Newburyport Cultural Council\, West Newbury Cultural Council\, and Mass Cultural Council. \nThe galleries are free and open to the public Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00am–5:00pm. Newburyport Art is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. The ground-floor Hills Gallery has an accessible entrance. More information\, as well as an online gallery is available at newburyportart.org. \nFounded in 1948\, Newburyport Art is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and exhibiting members’ work and to providing art education and access to the visual arts for the entire community.

SUMMARY:Piece-by-Piece: The Art of Assemblage\, Where 1 + 1 = 3
DESCRIPTION:Discover the magic when individual objects\, no matter how similar or different\, are joined into an entirely new work at the Cove Gallery in Rocky Neck \nAugust 27\, 2026 – September 20\, 2026 Cove Gallery\nOpening reception: Thursday\, August 27 from 5 to 8pm \nGloucester\, MA — The act of assembly reveals\, to the artist\, new forms\, new relationships of color and shape. Perhaps another unit can be placed over here\, or a new piece added there\, giving a fresh and unexpected whole. These works by five Rocky Neck members explore assemblage\, in its broadest sense. Using materials ranging from wire\, corrugated cardboard\, reclaimed wood and hardware\, to toy figures\, rocks\, and recycled flameworked glass the pieces become\, in the hands of the contributing artists\, surprising and delightful 3-D works. \nThe artists in this show include: \nDavid Covert has been involved in art making for nearly fifty years. Basically self-taught\, by virtue of continuing to draw\, paint\, and occasionally sculpt since the late sixties. Much of his work has been in the two-dimensional arts\, dominated by drawing and painting and printmaking. His training has been mostly informal\, interspersed with individual classes at Boston area art schools including the Museum School of the MFA\, Mass College of Art\, and the late DeCordova Museum school. For more information see https://www.davidcovert.art/. \nBrian Murphy graduated from Rhode Island School of Design\, then off to NYC honing agency skills. He settled in Beverly\, Massachusetts\, where he continues to work with ad agencies and individual clients. In between he still finds time to create original artwork made from scrap materials. To learn more\, visit https://brianmurphyartanddesign.com/. \nMarion Powers is a mixed media artist and a painter who lives and works in Manchester-by-the-Sea. Her assemblages incorporate objects collected during her travels. Her work begins with a found frame. She composes intuitively using an evolving collection of jewelry\, watch parts\, hardware\, book covers and other objects that she has collected over time. Some pieces have personal history\, while others are chosen for their beauty or character or the story they suggest. She transforms these elements into compositions I call “jewels”. What was once discarded or put aside becomes precious. She creates these works to encourage others to look for beauty in the ordinary and overlooked objects and to recognize the potential in everyday objects and to\, hopefully\, inspire curiosity\, reflection and a deeper appreciation for the unexpected. Marion earned her BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Her work is held in private collections in New York City\, Cape Ann and beyond. \nJudy Robinson-Cox creates miniature shadowboxes\, collages and small assembled sculptures using a variety of found objects and tiny plastic people. She creates these light-hearted artworks to make people smile and appreciate the world in which we live. She attended NYU School of Fine Arts and earned a BFA from the University of Connecticut with additional classes at Montserrat College of Art. For more information\, see https://judy.robinson-cox.com/. \nBeth Williams explores the qualities of glass and color. Using light and transparency in surprising ways along with layering color on color helps her to create unusual contemporary beads\, jewelry and small sculptures. She gleans inspiration from her gardens\, the ever-changing light on the ocean\, the seascapes that surround her … anywhere colors collide in nature. To learn more\, see https://www.bethwilliams.com/. \nAbout the Rocky Neck Art Colony\nRocky Neck Art Colony (RNAC)\, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization\, nurtures excellence in the arts through exhibitions\, workshops\, residencies and vibrant cultural events for its members and the public.
