Exhibit celebrates student and teacher art
Artwork by 50 Cape Cod students from kindergarten through high school and 10 teachers is on display in a two-month exhibit at Cape Cod Museum of Art. “Through Young Eyes,” a collaboration with the Cape Cod & Islands Art Educators Association, is the museum’s 18th annual display of student talent. This year’s choices that coincide with the statewide Youth Art Month, though, can be seen in different ways: in person; each item individually in an online gallery; or through an on-demand virtual tour. The exhibit includes sculpture, painting, printmaking, collage, jewelry-making, metal-working, drawing, ceramics and multi-media art.

Tales of Cape Cod President Gene Guill was interested in creating a new display at the Olde Colonial Courthouse Louis Cataldo Room, where the group hosts receptions and board meetings.
Fascinated by the several Barnstable town and village histories, Guill imagined creating a large wall map with pictures, text and postcards of historical buildings and sites located on or near Route 6A/Main Street, from one edge of Barnstable Village to the other. By looking at the mural, one could imagine walking through the village and seeing how one building or site related to the other.
Board members Ann Canedy, Richard Oliver, and Greg Masterson located several old postcards and pictures in the archives of the Sturgis Public Library and made digital enlargements.
