Rollstone Bank & Trust has committed $100,000 to sponsor free admission at the Fitchburg Art Museum (FAM) through 2029, the final year of the museum's Centennial celebration. The gift eliminates all admission fees, replacing previous categorical free programs with universal access, and is expected to significantly increase the museum's annual attendance of 14,000 visitors.
Brixham Art Society will host a three-day nautical-themed art exhibition at the Brixham Conservative Club from May 22 to May 24, running alongside the town's annual Heritage Sailing Regatta. The exhibition will feature maritime-inspired paintings by local and professional artists from Torbay and Brixham, including works depicting the heritage vessel Our Daddy, and will offer affordable greeting cards and original artwork for sale. Newly elected society president Mackenzie Moulton has created a painting of one of the regatta's heritage boats to connect the exhibition directly to the sailing event.
