Description

Explore the area surrounding the Museum on this walk past select Gloucester houses made famous by American realist painter Edward Hopper. Hopper is known to have painted in Gloucester on five separate occasions in the first decades of the 20th century. His paintings from this period capture the local landscape and architecture in a loosely rendered, light filled style and are considered by many to be some of his finest works. Guided walking tours last about 1½ hours; participants should be comfortable being on their feet for that amount of time. Cost is $10 for CAM members and $20 for Non-members.
