Engaging Artistry

Artistry - not artists - has been the central exploration of my book Cape Ann Narratives of Art in Life. Some of its twenty-eight participants are easily recognized for their work in the fine arts or the performing arts while some have developed other types of personal creativity.

What is artistry? And what is an artist? The Cape Ann Museum will host an interactive panel discussion on Saturday, January 13 at 3:00 to bring together four of the 'profilees' from my book, representing different points of view on the subject. Questions from the audience will be welcome. The Museum and its events are open free to CAM members and Cape Ann residents during January. Reservations are not required.

The program features these members of our community who will speak about artistry in their life experiences.

  1. Gave Stan Narratives for Christmas. He is thoroughly enjoying it and I look forward to reading it myself. It is just lovely to have items such as your book that give Stan the opportunity to connect with places he loves.

  2. This article contains some of the best information on this subject.  I found this easy to understand and interesting to read.  This is good content.The emotions of the girls are the most fragile thing, they can be associated with these tiny things and can be ruined if something bad happens or is said about these chachkies.
