This past week we celebrated ribbon cuttings with three local businesses.  Tonno Restaurant in Gloucester had a ribbon cutting ceremony to kick off their grand opening in the afternoon on Friday, June 17. Later that evening, 7th Wave Restaurant had a ribbon cutting to celebrate new General Manager Natasha Khan and Executive Chef Zac Tran bringing on a new menu concept.  Monday afternoon, June 20, The Brass Monkey welcomed family, friends and customers to join in their ribbon cutting and grand opening celebration.

BIG THINGS are happening on Cape Ann this year!  We are excited to welcome you all and wish you great success!

Update on Gloucester Sign

The face ought to be near done today. The rope trim and the welcome to and Americas oldest seaport should be done today.

All that will be left is to paint the support beams in the back of the sign.

This will take the sign all through the summer and this fall a new sign will need to be designed and done.

Thank you

Beach Stickers can be used for both.
Residents stickers are not and can not be used at Beaches.
Hope this helps.
The following parking areas require either a resident beach sticker or
a resident parking sticker with a nominal fee associated with the
purchase of a resident parking sticker: good for a period of five
years beginning in 2012 and every five years thereafter.
Beach Court, for its entire length.
Commercial Street, #17—#21, westerly side, in a southerly direction to
its intersection with Beach Court.
Day Avenue, both sides beginning at its intersection with High Street
for its entire length in a southerly direction.
Eastern Point Boulevard, Niles Beach area, westerly side, (Niles Beach
Area) from its boundary with Eastern Point Road in a southerly
direction to its intersection with Farrington Avenue, from 6:00 a.m.
to 6:00 p.m. daily.
Farrington Avenue, southerly side from its intersection with Eastern
Point Boulevard to its intersection with St. Louis Avenue from May 1
to September 15 during the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Fort Square, for its entire length (from #2 to #59).
So, a beach sticker is as good as a resident sticker.
Thank you
Have a safe and fun Summer.

The Cape Ann Museum welcomes you to get your arts and culture fix outside this weekend with two walking tours featuring major players in Cape Ann’s artistic, economic and social history. Choose between a leisurely stroll down historic Middle Street on Friday, June 17 or a lively jaunt by Gloucester’s harbor to view the very spots immortalized by the work of artist Fitz Henry Lane on Saturday, June 18.

Guided walking tours begin at 10:00a.m., are held rain or shine and last about 1½ hours; participants should be comfortable being on their feet for that amount of time. $10 members; $20 nonmembers (includes Museum admission). Space is limited; reservations required. Call (978)283-0455 x10 or email info@capeannmuseum.org for details. Tickets can also be purchased online at Eventbrite. Choose one or both tours: Historic Middle Street and Fitz Henry Lane.
