Celebrating the History of Provincetown as an Art Colony

pilgrim-monument.org

The Great Provincetown Summer: 1916 is an exhibit that celebrates Provincetown’s emergence as the nation’s first art colony. Objects, art and narrative give insights to the foundation of a rich cultural heritage, from a remarkable period when art and cultural luminaries first converged in Provincetown. On The Point, Mindy Todd interviews John McDonagh, executive director of the Pilgrim Monument and Provincetown Museum, and Samuel Tagercurator, assistant director, and senior designer at the Harvard Museums of Science and Culture.
