Hope you can make it.
Gabrielle Barzaghi‘s beautiful painted backdrop of the Dogtown woods is an added wrinkle. With Liz Sibley Fletcher’s Forest Forms and works by Geoffrey Bayliss, Evelyn Stewart and Suzanne Brown, we call our show a ‘staged installation’ in which readers build an image of Dogtown as they enact the poem.

Our Member, Mary Warner
A Celebration of Life will be held at the Annisquam Village Hall on Sunday, September 24 at 2 pm.
Essex – Mary F. (Campbell) Warner, 75, of Essex, MA, wife of David C. Warner, passed away at her residence, with her family at her side, after a long battle with cancer. Mary was born in Wappingers Falls, NY on August 22, 1947 and was the daughter of the late Kenneth and Thelma (Coffman) Campbell.
Mary was extremely generous, kind, supportive, and above all put her family first. She would do absolutely anything necessary to support her husband, children, and granddaughter. She never missed any of her family’s sporting events and baked treats for every single one. She particularly enjoyed skiing with the family in Mount Washington Valley and trips to Crested Butte. She loved her friends fiercely and cared for them deeply. Mary had many talents, working in a bank, volunteering for everything at her children’s schools as well as local groups and organizations, and became a successful realtor; she was ambitious and determined. She fought her cancer with bravery and was more courageous and stronger than anyone we know. Her energy is still felt by those that knew her and for that we are grateful.
She is survived by her husband David, her son David and wife Naomi (Chapman) and granddaughter Rose, her son Seth and wife Kim (Wright), and her daughter Kate.
She was predeceased by her parents.
In keeping with her wishes, there are no services at this time. There will be a celebration of life. The date has not yet been set.
Arrangements are by the Greely Funeral Home, 212 Washington St. Gloucester, MA. Online condolences may be given at:

Kathryn Hollett – March 27, 1938 – April 21, 2023
Kathryn Hollett, “Chicki” passed away peacefully at home in the presence of family on Friday, April 21, 2023.
True to form, Chicki’s pancreatic cancer diagnosis last year was met with a determination to live her life on her own terms – with fortitude, elegance, a sense of humor and a renewed commitment to get busy designing the set for AVP’s upcoming production of Mary Poppins. Chicki was a Board member of the Annisquam Village Players, where she worked tirelessly each year since 1992 as Set Designer for the AVP theater productions. She was so passionate about the AVP work that even until the day of her death she was planning the AVP production for Gloucester’s upcoming 400th year celebration.
Her visiting hours will be held in the Greely Funeral Home, 212 Washington Street, Gloucester on Thursday, April 27, from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. Relatives and friends are cordially invited to attend.
In keeping with her wishes there will be no services and her burial will be held privately.In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Open Door https://www.foodpantry.org/ways-to-give/donate/
