Art Show 2002


Art Show 
August 2002
Story and photos contributed by Ruth Fenner Barish

The annual art show, including a fine turnout of work by the youngsters of the community. Maria Berruti, who said she takes private lessons, showed serious promise. We saw a lot of bead work as well as other jewelry, especially noting young Brianne and Murphy Shannon’s bead rings. The PL historical display featured photos memorializing the local theatricals that were so popular in pre-television times. Dana, you don’t look a day older! Bill Hemp showed ink and colored pencil sketches from Peggy’s Cove, where he and Maggie spent the month of July. Admirers - and buyers - surrounded all the artists. John Simonelli not only judged the children’s work but had a throng of connoisseurs around his own award-winning photos.
