SUMMARY:The Resurrection of Judy Rhines: An Installation by Gabrielle Barzaghi & Peter Littlefield
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, August 30\, 2025\n11:00 a.m.—5:00 p.m.\nWhite-Ellery House\, CAM Green\n13 Poplar Street\, Gloucester\, MA\nFree and open to the public.\nParking is first come first served. \nVisit the White-Ellery House to experience The Resurrection of Judy Rhines\, a site-specific drawing installation by Gabrielle Barzaghi (drawings) and Peter Littlefield (dramaturgy). It is comprised of a series of cardboard dioramas and texts that recount a fictional story about Judy Rhines who\, in 1796\, suddenly disappears after being accused of witchcraft. Some say she died by throwing herself off a Rowan tree. But there have been rumors of sightings of her in the Dogtown Woods. \nA radio play\, The Beginning of the End (of Judy Rhines) by Peter Littlefield\, accompanies the installation. The play is a mystery set in the 1940s. Judy Rhines is a secretary\, until one day\, losing her job and just about everything else\, she learns the ways of a witch. Cast includes Phoebe Potts\, Sarah Hickler\, Michael McNamara\, and Evan Lurie. Recorded and edited by Michael LaMarche. Music by Evan Lurie. \nKathleen Adams will perform her original song\, “Judy’s Lament\,” with words by Peter Littlefield\, at 2pm on Saturdays\, August 23 and 30. \nArtist Bios:\nGabrielle Barzaghi is a visual artist whose work explores the absurdity\, tragedy\, and beauty of the world. Her imagery is evocative of places just beyond the edge of normal experience and has an often otherworldly sensibility about the nature of time and being. Her work is in public and private collections\, including the Cape Ann Museum. She graduated from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts\, and taught drawing at Suffolk University for over 30 years. Barzaghi is represented by Matthew Swift Gallery. Recently her work was shown in the exhibition Lines of Thought / Contemporary Women Artists Draw at Jane Deering Gallery. Curator Judith Tolnick Champa included Barzaghi’s work in the exhibition Reseeding the City / Ethnobotany in the Urban at the Rhode Island State House. Barzaghi’s recent solo show Fear Game was exhibited at the Matthew Swift Gallery. She also made a gigantic drawn backdrop for Peter Littlefield’s staging of the play Dogtown Common. \nPeter Littlefield is a stage director\, playwright\, and dramaturg. He recently staged Percy MacKaye’s Dogtown Common at Windhover\, co-produced by the Gloucester 400+. The backdrop was created by Gabrielle Barzaghi. He adapted and co-staged James M. Barrie’s Peter Pan for the Fisher Center at Bard with director Christopher Alden and stage designer Marsha Ginsberg. He co-directed Handel’s Partenope with Mr. Alden at the English National Opera\, winning the Laurence Olivier Award. His work has appeared at the New York City Opera\, Glimmerglass Opera\, Spoleto Festival\, San Francisco Opera\, Theater Basil\, Prague National Theater\, and other companies in the United States and Europe. He began his career in New York’s downtown. He helped start The Pyramid Club where he staged many original shows. His trilogy of short films\, What She Learned from Plants\, made with Roy Rallo\, screened at the Gloucester Writers Center. He leads a playwrighting workshop there each summer. He studied with Maria Irene Fornes. \nImage Credit: Excerpt from The Resurrection of Judy Rhines\, 2025. Gabrielle Barzaghi\, ink on cardboard. Image courtesy of the artist.

DESCRIPTION:September 3\nProgram:\n5:30 – 6:00 pm: Light Refreshments & Networking\n6:00 – 7:00 pm: Presentation\n7:00- 7:15 pm: Conclusion & Q&A.\nhttps://bit.ly/MaximustoJack \nOn the night of September 3rd\, 1960\, John Hays Hammond Jr. hosted a reading by the poetCharles Olson at Hammond Castle Museum… \nThis poster was originally done for that event\, by the inventor’s late-life partner Harry Martin\, who introduced Hammond—once called the “Electronic Sorcerer”—to Olson: the self-styled “Archeologist of Morning.” The two men’s friendship would be short-lived and tempestuous. \n65 years later\, join Hammond Castle Museum in marking the anniversary of Olson’s reading and for the first time exploring the dramatic relationship between our founder and the luminary Maximus poet—two colossal figures who helped shape the community of Gloucester as we\nknow it today. \nThrough never-before-seen archival correspondence and a close reading of often overlooked Olson poems that address Hammond and the avant-garde 1960s literary and artistic circle surrounding the Museum directly\, Director of Visitor Services and Education Caleb McMurphy\nwill revive a near-forgotten chapter of local history and shed new light on two of the city’s most\ninteresting citizens.

SUMMARY:The Sweet Remains
DESCRIPTION:The acclaimed folk-rock trio\, which has amassed more than 65 million Spotify streams\, returns to touring in support of their highly anticipated fifth studio album\, Embers—a mesmerizing collection of acoustic-driven\, three-part harmonies. \nA rare independent success\, The Sweet Remains have surpassed 65 million streams on Spotify\, earning a devoted global following. \nFormed by Rich Price (Burlington\, VT)\, Greg Naughton (NYC)\, and Brian Chartrand (Phoenix\, AZ)\, The Sweet Remains is driven by three accomplished singer-songwriters. Rich Price\, whose song I’m On My Way was featured on the multi-platinum Shrek 2 soundtrack\, has released multiple solo albums and written for film and TV. Early in his career\, he was signed to RCA and later Geffen Records. Greg Naughton earned acclaim for his debut indie release\, Demagogue & The Sun Songs\, praised by Performing Songwriter Magazine as “a magnetic writer and performer.” That album was co-produced by the late Grammy-winning artist Phoebe Snow. Greg’s work extends beyond music—he co-wrote and directed The Independents\, inspired by the band’s real-life experiences\, and often collaborates with his wife\, Tony-winner Kelli O’Hara. Brian Chartrand\, a celebrated Phoenix-based songwriter\, has released numerous solo albums and tours internationally\, including as the creator of Live From Laurel Canyon\, a critically acclaimed tribute to folk-rock legends like CSN\, Neil Young\, and Joni Mitchell. \nWith Embers\, The Sweet Remains continue their legacy\, following in the footsteps of their beloved catalog: Music Fills The Spaces (2020)\, Night Songs (2015)\, North & Prospect (2012)\, and Laurel & Sunset (2008).
