Summer Exhibit: Provincetown
The Photography exhibit, WOMEN BY SEA, shows in the Exhibition Hall of The Provincetown Commons. This series of 20-inch monochrome portraits is a tribute to the diverse spirit, community and contributions of Provincetown women who are at the heart of the town's history. They were selected for their service to the community, cultural excellence, or long-standing ties to the sea.
BACKGROUND : The photographic series was inspired and
informed by the literary tradition of Mary Heaton Vorse,
an activist who wrote Time and the Town,
and the work of Norma Holt, whose portraits of women
are visible on McMillan Wharf when coming
to Provincetown, Massachusetts from the sea.
