Nancy Shoemaker joins us for a pre-Halloween treat.
Come discover peaceful places that have no admission fee - for the living
anyway! Nancy will lead our audience on a virtual (slideshow) tour
of Cape Cod's final resting places from Truro to
Falmouth - and our audience won't leave the comfort of Dennis Public Library.
You'll learn a lot of history, with a little humor thrown in for fun. Get a
view of various stone carvers' works and discover how to date a cemetery by its
stones. Headstones on the Cape span the
centuries, with a few dating, amazingly, from the 1600s. You’ll enjoy
contemplating these unique works of art.
Reception, Thursday, October 23 from 5:00-7:00 pm

Freedman is an artist who relocated from north of Boston to East Dennis
where she is inspired by the beauty of the landscape and creative
energy of fellow artists.
While
Ellie has explored a variety of mediums, she is drawn to the vibrancy
and immediacy of working with pastels, to which she has focused her
current work. For more information about the paintings on display at the
