Art Galleries Emanate a Warm Glow in Winter

Winter on Cape Cod presents a challenge for local artists and galleries, as off-season landscapes often go unsold. However, several gallery owners are embracing the season with experimental programming: Liz Carney of Four Eleven Gallery in Provincetown is hosting a group show titled "Long Blue Shadow" and planning artist residencies and a "Knitney Biennial." Gary Marotta Fine Art and Schoolhouse Gallery remain open on weekends, while Susie Nielsen's Farm Projects in Wellfleet features a group exhibition of works on paper. These gallerists find that winter visitors are more engaged, fostering richer conversations and a stronger sense of community.
