The Cape Cod Museum of Art presents:

The Influence of the Long Point Gallery with Grace Hopkins

Thursday, April 11, 2:00 – 3:00 pm.

Member $12 / Non-Member $20 (non-member ticket includes Museum admission)

Founded in 1977 by 13 Cape artists, this important cooperative gallery revitalized the Provincetown art colony, spawned new galleries, and attracted many dealers and collectors during its twenty-plus-year heyday.

The influence of the Long Point Gallery became more clear as Provincetown, recognized in 2010 as “home of the nation’s oldest art colony” by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, grew in relevance. Wellfleet abstract photographer Grace Hopkins is the daughter of one of the Long Point Galleries founders, Abstract Expressionist Budd Hopkins. Grace’s talk will integrate both a history of the gallery and storytelling gleaned from her long friendships with these important Provincetown artists.
