Here’s a wonderful
opportunity to plan your summer schedule to include our en
plein air painting gatherings exploring the beauty of Hull
and its surroundings with paintbrush in hand. Our artists are
a gently organized group ranging from beginners to
professionals. They meet at changing locations around Hull on
Friday mornings throughout the summer to paint or draw. For
the second year, we are excited to have been invited by Boston
Harbor Island Alliance to head out to Spectacle Island to find
inspiration in the beauty of the Harbor Islands. Dates are
tentatively scheduled
for July 23, August 13, and September 17 and ferry passes for
regular island boat service will be provided for free
water transportation to the island. For this and all other
en plein air adventures, please bring your own materials,
paint, pastels, pencils and canvas. If you would like to add
your or a friend’s address to the en plein air artists’
emailing list, connecting artists and informing them of that
week’s gathering place, please send an email to:

We're looking forward to our Summer Adventures...

and exploration for children ages 5-9. Summer
Adventure meets Tuesday-Thursday from 9:30-12, with a
different theme each week. *Registration for Pond
Yacht Racers is $75 members, $90 nonmembers (due to a higher
material cost). Registration for all other weeks is
$60 members, $68 nonmembers (scholarships and 10% sibling
discounts available).

A chance to create a classic wooden "pond yacht" that sails
