The night wasn't bad too! Things are heating up on the waterfront. Tall Ship tours are on going as well as with the US Coast Guard Station Gloucester. As night time descended the Lighted Boat Parade made its way through the Annisquam River into the harbor. Highlighted by a terrific fireworks display!

Hi Jay Great pics I love the boat parade and fire works good job!!!!
Fabulous! I think that is Paul George painting on the docks...
I was wondering, are there a lot of artists that come to the docks just to paint?
That space shuttle boat ... it is a boat, right? ... is pretty darned creative!
I'm really enjoying looking at all your photos Jay. You make me feel as though I was almost there. So much detail, including the great night shots.
Thanks Frank & Kathleen! Sharon,yup that was the "Space Shuttle" and yup there's a boat under there! There's always artists around. On Rocky Neck a well established art colony is there...the oldest in the country! And the North Shore Art Association is having an event with the Schooner Festival. Member artists were painting around the harbor and selling their work.
Yes, a lot of artists paint on the docks but this past weekend the NSAA was holding a Schooner Festival Paint-In where artists signed up to be t certain locations so people could come and watch them.
Their paintings are on display in the Gordan Grant Room at NSAA.
