The Arts on Cape Ann

Cape Ann – Gloucester, Rockport, Essex, and Manchester, Massachusettes - has inspired and nurtured artists from Winslow Homer and Edward Hopper to poets Charles Olson and Vincent Ferrini and many more. Artists come to Cape Ann from all over the world to create and study. Visual and performing arts and a deep connection to the area’s rich history and natural beauty all flourish here, offering enrichment to residents and visitors alike. Our thriving arts community includes 2,000 working artists: painters; sculptors; photographers; graphic, media and design artists; writers, craftsmen, musicians, dancers, actors, and filmmakers.

The Society for the Encouragement of the Arts (seARTS) is a coalition of individuals and organizations passionate about art—all working together to improve the economic base for the arts and the larger Cape Ann community.
