Gloucester Speaks

The first Gloucester screening of Shep Abbott’s film, ‘GLOUCESTER SPEAKS’

On Friday, May 17th at 7:00pm the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church and the Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation proudly host Shep Abbott’s film ‘Gloucester Speaks,’ in collaboration with the Cape Ann Community Cinema, in the Church sanctuary.  This will be the premiere screening of the epic documentary film in Gloucester.

Fishermen, Scientists, Public Officials, Scholars, Authors, Artists, Merchants, Local Citizens: in Gloucester documentarian Shep Abbott’s new film ‘Gloucester Speaks’ – nearly a decade in the making – all of these people convey their deeply-held thoughts and feelings about their storied City’s illustrious past, present, and projected future.

Beginning in 1606 with explorer Samuel de Champlain’s naming and mapping of what was to become America’s first commercial fishing port – “Le Beauport” (The Beautiful Harbor) – the film is narrated by Gloucester residents.  Their historic port experienced many blessings over the ensuing 400 years, such as the establishment of the greatest cod fishery in the world.  It would also endure profound sorrows, including the disappearance of the indigenous Pawtucket People and the eventual loss of 10,000+ fishermen to the sea.

These hardy New England residents share their concerns about the present day, exploring today’s crises of the loss of that great fishery, floods brought by advancing, warming oceans, 100-year storms, and the continuing loss of remaining fish populations heading north to find colder waters.  Their stories, hopes and dreams are told with warmth, dignity, and humor, manifesting a deep love and concern for this historic and beautiful fishing port.

Shep Abbott is a veteran, award-winning documentary film-maker, artist, photographer and longtime member of the Unitarian Universalist Church whose hometown is Gloucester, Massachusetts.  The screening of his monumental film is a not-to-be missed event!

Tickets ($13.50 General, under 12 free) are available at the door and in advance online at the Cape Ann Community Cinema website: www.capeanncinema.com

The Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church is located on the green at 50 Middle Street, at the corner with Church Street.  Note: the green is closed for renovation but the main entrance is open. Please seek parking on the street and in lots nearby. A side entrance with an elevator is located at 10 Church Street.

Tulip Heaven At Felix’s Family Farm

Despite showers on a cloudy afternoon, I made my annual trip to Felix’s Family Farm in Ipswich to visit the tulips. I have made this trip a number of times over the years, but this time I was totally floored by how impressive the fields looked, especially on a dreary day. The beds have been moved around a bit and the result is very satisfying! This year’s theme is TIME but you are running out of time to see those tulips at peak so you might want to get yourself there by Mother’s Day weekend. It’s well worth the ride. The tulips are plentiful, healthy and GORGEOUS. It’s a little bit of a replacement for the tulips we lost along the boulevard this year.

Whale Watching Boat heading towards Eastern Point

On Friday there were reports of an Atlantic Right Whale off of Shore Road.  Of course, I went out to check it out, but the whales had moved on.  There was a report that the Whales were following the whale watching boat.  Found this ironic and was wondering if the whales had binoculars to people watch.  Noticed the captain of the boat was very respectful of the whale.
