So far, I only have one tiny but utterly breathtaking painting that I was lucky enough to squirrel away from the Churchill Gallery, but I visit my next new painting in their online gallery often. Even when I'm not buying, I'm always asking questions, and the lovely (Belgian?) woman who tolerates me is always very gracious and polite.

Gallery on the Green is a gallery showcasing local artists' work as well as hosting charity…read moreauctions. THE POSITIVES: Artwork- Every time I visit which is about 2-4 times a year I always purchase something. These artists are very talented! Charity work- They recently hosted a masquerade ball auctioning off masks that people had made. I totally would have bought one! Price- Since they are local artists, the work is not going to be very expensive Fun- It is just so much fun looking at all of the artwork! Some pieces are quite fascinating actually. Staff- They are mostly volunteers and they are just the sweetest people ever! I feel so bad that they sit in the gallery but not many people visit I presume on a regular basis...:( Overall if you want an interesting piece of art or just want to browse this is the place to go! -Kim :)

Sawmill is a truly magical place. Located in Montague, Sawmill is located in the mill area that…read morecontains The Alvah Stone. It's a small but mighty and lovely shop that houses products from 15+ local member artists and 20+ local consignors. The artists take turns running the shop and are very proud of their co-op. If you're even so much as nearby Montague, you simply must stop here. It's really hard to describe such a place. Its jam-packed full of expertly curated paintings, photos, jewelry, scarves, knick-knacks, sculptures, cards and more. No two artists are the same. You can get lost for a very, very long time browsing the selections and getting to know the works of each artist. I mean, just look at my photos below. It is too much fun to turn the corner in the gallery and stumble across something new and colorful. I'm really regretting not purchasing a few wearable art pieces and a pen-and-ink art print of an owl. If you need a gift for someone (or you're like me, and every day is Treat Yo' Self day), Sawmill is a no-brainer of a stop. Not only are you getting an exceptional, handmade gift, but you're supporting local artists and keeping this interesting collaboration thriving. The prices range significantly, but everything here is affordable, and more importantly, uniquely interesting. Love, love, love!

We went to see Noel Paul Stookey, the surviving member of Peter, Paul and Mary, and his 90-minute concert was a great joy with new songs and of course some of the PPM classics ("If I Had a Hammer" and "Puff, the Magic Dragon," for instance). His standing ovation was richly deserved. We'll be eagerly heading back to see several more performances in the theater later this year. The theater is officially the Katherine Hepburn Cultural Center honoring the award-winning actress who lived close by before her death in 2003. There is a small museum on the ground floor that is a lovely tribute to her. It shows off some of her costumes, artifacts from her long Hollywood career, letters, etc. There's also a small gift shop and a bar nearby where beverages alcoholic and non may be purchased (and taken upstairs to the theater). The theater is reached by stairs or an elevator and seats close to 300 people with remarkably good sightlines from every seat that we could see. There's a friendly staff to guide the way, and everything about the concert-going experience for us was first class. The front of the theater is attractive and very imposing with steep steps. Happily that isn't how you have to get it. Instead, walk around to the side and enter there close to the box office and the museum. There's lots of parking on the street and in lot off the street. It's all free. Speaking of money, we found the ticket prices here to be quite reasonable. Our tickets were $59, and that's not too far off from other performances we checked. It seems to us a good value. And Old Saybrook is an attractive area; the broad, tree-lined Main Street has lots of restaurants and shops for pre- or post-concert enjoyment.
