Provincetown Rivals Boston's Newbury Street

Clustered in the East End, with more scattered throughout the town, the art galleries of Provincetown rival any to be found on Boston's Newbury Street, or in any urban center except New York.

From the Julie Heller Gallery- at 30, the town's oldest continually-operating gallery- to newer spaces such as Alden and Bowersock, these galleries are born of dreams, sustained by sweat and often sacrifice, and nurtured by a community proud of its long tradition as any adventurous artist's colony. ~ Boston Spirit, July / August 2009 issue, pg 36.


Wow, what a nice surprise. We are proud to be included and considered in their list of Provincetown's top galleries.

Boston Spirit Magazine should be in news stands throughout New England.

Like; Julie Heller Gallery, Kobalt Gallery, Ernden Fine Art Gallery, Packard Gallery, The Alden Gallery, Albert Merola gallery, Rice/ Polak Gallery, Lyman-Eyer Gallery, Simie Maryles Gallery, William-Scott Gallery, Gallery Voyeur, Provincetown Art Association and Museum, Schoolhouse Center and Driskel Gallery, and Berta Walker.



Our review from Boston Spirit; Bowersock Gallery is also the result of realizing a dream that five years ago took Bowersock and his partner Michael Senger from new Hampshire to Provincetown, opening a gallery in the town center and moving to its current location in the East End four years ago. They brought with them a following of New Hampshire and Maine artists. Bowersock likes to "think outside the box" by designing shows with challenging themes such as "Dreams and Harsh Realities" which opens July 4 and asks participating artists to create works while listening to an ambient music CD from New York DJ Susan Morabito.~ Boston Spirit.
