A Litte Art, A Lot of Sand


Today is actually March 3. I've been neglectful with this blog and will try to catch up. Nevertheless, details of the days will be lost, those little funny happenings that make a trip interesting or details about a restaurant or museum. On this day we explored another side of the Key to find the Art Center and Fort Zachary Taylor. The Art Center is one of those lively organizations that I wish for in Wareham. The center is in a former armory. When we entered there was a printmaking class in the main center room with probably 50 people participating. Hung around this room was a show by Marlene Koenig If you go to her site, take a look at the art journals. They are beautiful. The Center also provides studio space for an artist in residence and sponsored space for about 5 other artists. There is an outdoor sculpture garden, too. All in all a wonderful community effort. From here we went to Fort Zachary Taylor. The Fort was held by the Union army for the entirety of the war. Here we found all the locals on the adjacent beach. That night we took our friend Carol's advice for dinner at Kelly's Caribbean Bar and Grill. For more pictures visit my flicker
