Our gallery highlights artwork from emerging and established artists working in the Cape Ann region and beyond. Local artists are influenced by the rich historical art legacy of Cape Ann—artists like Winslow Homer, Childe Hassan, Edward Hopper, Mark Rothko and Milton Avery have painted our picturesque towns and iconic coastline.

As the only fine art gallery in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts, we exhibit a wide array of mediums and styles, from traditional still life oil paintings to contemporary acrylic landscapes, abstract sculpture, ceramics, pastel portraits, reductive printmaking, photography and more.
