SUMMARY:ECOC Lecture: The Resplendent Quetzal
DESCRIPTION:Join ornithologist Alan Poole for an exploration into the life and history of the Resplendent Quetzal — a dazzling\, legendary bird of the highland forests of Central America. Author of the recent book Quetzals: Icons of the Cloud Forest (2023)\, Poole will lead us through the nesting and feeding ecology of this renowned bird\, its role in Mayan and Aztec religions\, and how Resplendents fit into the increasingly threatened rain forests that sustain them. In addition\, we’ll take a look at what lies ahead for this (and other) quetzals — how conservation efforts are giving them a boost in some regions\, while in others the birds are struggling. This talk will touch on land use in Central America\, especially Costa Rica\, through a quetzal lens. No species does more to bring current land use trends in this region into focus. Understanding those trends is key to maintaining the viability of highland tropical forests in the Americas\, and the quetzals that depend on them. \nA book signing will follow the program.

SUMMARY:Artful Conversations: John Sloan’s “Scavenger Rocks”
DESCRIPTION:Join Us Mid-Day for Artful Conversations \nTake a midday pause and experience one work of art in depth.\nArtful Conversations are informal\, docent-led gallery experiences that invite visitors to slow down\, look closely\, and engage in thoughtful conversation. Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the Education Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of the featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, participants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives\, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversations \nThe program will offer an in‑depth look at John Sloan’s Scavenger Rocks\, a recent acquisition that deepens our understanding of the artist’s long-standing ties to East Gloucester. The presentation begins with a brief overview of Sloan’s stays at the Red Cottage from 1914 to 1918\, a formative period that shaped many of his most compelling Cape Ann paintings. From there\, the talk turns to the granite outcropping near Niles Beach\, drawing on contemporary photographic documentation to illuminate the site’s distinctive forms and its role in Sloan’s artistic process\, offering a vivid\, tangible link between the artwork and the landscape that inspired it. \nDan Duffy and his wife Helene have been Innkeepers at the Beech Tree B&B in Rockport for 16 years. In this capacity\, he takes pride in serving as an ambassador of goodwill for travelers from around the world. He is passionate about showcasing our region’s rich history\, geographical uniqueness\, and artistic treasurers. As a Cape Ann Museum docent\, Dan uses his experience connecting with visitors while deepening his own knowledge of the Museum and of the region’s vibrant social and cultural history.

SUMMARY:Jesse Cook
DESCRIPTION:A global artist in every sense of the word\, Jesse Cook redefines music’s power to connect people across cultures and continents. \nOver the last three decades\, the Paris-born\, Toronto-raised master of the Spanish guitar has built a devoted following for his spellbinding rumba flamenco\, routinely selling out performance halls from London to Los Angeles\, Milan to Montreal. \nOn stage\, Cook radiates infectious energy\, collaborating with his band and guest instrumentalists to craft immersive\, unforgettable experiences. His concerts are celebrated for their warmth\, precision\, and emotional depth. \nThroughout his decades-long career\, Jesse Cook has remained devoted to musical exploration.

SUMMARY:CSEM Presents: Trio Langostino in Concert
DESCRIPTION:CSEM is proud to present Trio Langostino\, a new ensemble made up of Early Music superstars Cynthia Roberts\, Phoebe Carrai\, and Peter Sykes. \nSykes\, Roberts\, and Carrai have been friends since they met in the late 70’s at New England Conservatory of Music in Boston\, MA. After receiving their degrees\, Sykes\, Roberts\, and Carrai went on to establish successful careers worldwide. It was only after many years of traveling and performing that the three met up again to play a concert\, rediscovering the wonder of making music together. Now\, all three members teach together at the Juilliard School in New York\, and have come together to form the Trio Langostino\, named after their shared connections to Cape Cod and love of the ocean and its delicious bounty. \nIn their concert debut together\, these three internationally acclaimed musicians come together with a lifetime of experience to share their favorite Baroque chamber music masterpieces. The new trio promises a program of virtuosity\, discovery\, and infectious musical joy with works of Stradella\, Gabrielli\, Biber\, J.S. Bach\, Platti\, and Boismortier.

SUMMARY:Not So Faust
DESCRIPTION:Perhaps you are familiar with Goethe or Marlowe’s tales of “Faust\,” both brooding epics of a scholar who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for knowledge. As the title suggests\, this version is “Not So Faust!”. Jill Rogati (director) revisits the original story in the style of Commedia dell’arte – a traditional Italian form of theatre that uses masks\, physical comedy\, and playful improvisation to make a solemn subject incredibly silly. While philosophy and stern contemplation of the complex nature of humanity certainly have a place\, “Not So Faust!” seeks to show that loosening our belts and laughing at ourselves is just what the Doctor ordered.
