Thursday Afternoons IN APRIL, beginning April 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd, from 2-4pm (IN PERSON)

During several summers in the 1940’s, Tennessee Williams wrote all or parts of some of his most well known works on the Cape. From THE GLASS MENAGERIE, A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, and others in between, Provincetown was the artistic muse and the birthplace of some of the American theater’s most astoundingly significant works of art, by one of its most prolific and important playwrights. In this course, we will examine Williams’ connection to Provincetown, plays he worked on in town, film adaptations of these plays, and explore others of his works influenced by his time on the Outer Cape. Through play scenes, film clips, texts by Williams scholars, we will immerse ourselves in 1940’s Provincetown and how it shaped WIlliams’ work, life and career. You may even be cast in a scene or two as we read from the plays! (acting experience not required). Taught by newcomer to Open University Tennessee Williams expert Alston Brown.

University of Wellfleet/ Preservation Hall

Instructed by Martha Rothman via Zoom with a field trip on the last day, April 23rd, April 30th and May 7 via Zoom & May 14th 10am-12pm

The Bauhaus was a revolutionary and influential art, design and architecture school founded in 1919 by Walter Gropius in Weimar, Germany. The school relocated to Dessau from 1925 to 1932, and finally to Berlin until the forced closure in 1933. This course will examine the Bauhaus principles, people and politics and their dispersal in the 1930s to the United States—Chicago “New Bauhaus,” Black Mountain College and the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) where Walter Gropius was appointed a professor of architecture in 1937. GSD faculty based in Cambridge, MA, and their friends and colleagues were subsequently attracted to the Outer Cape and left a legacy of summer houses designed and built in this unique landscape. The last two classes will focus on the local Wellfleet history, geography and design, built upon Bauhaus principles; examine the work of the Cape Cod Modern House Trust (CCMHT) in preserving the architectural legacy; and conclude with an in-person tour, guided by Peter McMahon, of the Breuer House, recently acquired and restored by the CCMHT.

For those who have experienced the beauty and wonder of Welfleet ponds over the seasons, they are indeed special places - sharing commonalities in their origins, historical use, and pristine natural surroundings, but each unique and valued for their individual qualities, nuances, and charms. Over the past few years, news and information from various sources have spoken to the need to address water quality issues in the ponds across Cape Cod. Learn more about the unique features of Wellfleet's kettle ponds, what the issues are for our ponds, how our ponds are being monitored, what the data from monitoring can tell us, and what we can do to help keep them healthy for years to come.

Washington Post-praised guitarist David Rogers explores the musical landscape of 16th-century Spain through the lens of Valencian court musician Luis Milán.

This program blends Arab and European influences with an organic, improvisational spirit that is both historically rich and deeply moving. Also featured will be Sephardic and North African music that originates in the Andalusian traditions. The second part of the program will feature 20th and 21st century Spanish music which blends these traditions to make the Spanish and Flamenco music of today.

Termed, 'a prominent guitarist,' by the New York Times, David Rogers maintains an active solo and ensemble career as a classical guitarist and performer on early plucked strings. The Washington Post has praised his ‘astonishingly florid’ solo improvisational passage work. He has been called a 'modern master’ of the classical guitar' by 20th Century Guitar. Classics today.com has praised his ‘first rate instrumental artistry,’ and the Lute Society of America Quarterly has called his technique ‘formidable.’ He is an endorsing artist for Aquila Strings, (Italy) and his compositions has been featured in major guitar magazines such as Fingerstyle Guitar in the United States and Akustic Gitarre in Germany.

David has recorded for Dorian, Callisto and Focus Recordings. He has taught master classes throughout North America, including the San Francisco Conservatory, The University of Southern California and The Interlochen National Arts Camp.

Becoming Sarah

Can you call yourself a survivor if you don't know what you survived? Take Sarah Vogel. Auschwitz is her hometown, yet she has no memory of the place. Not the obscene conditions of her birth, the mother, or the changing cast of faceless women who kept her warm on winter nights. She's only three when liberated, and with no one to tell her who she is or what she might become, Sarah has no choice but to invent herself. On her journey from Europe, land of the defeated, to America, land of the self-invented, she learns that holes in a person's past are red flags and that little white lies go down easier than explanations. But eventually those lies will become the wall that hides her true self, the good and the bad, from those she loves. Becoming Sarah is the poignant, sometimes ruthless portrait of an American family-its matriarch, a tough old bird who should never have drawn breath but is bent on lasting forever-and the line of daughters and granddaughters who follow. Each generation standing on the shoulders of the last; each gaining more of the strength, will, and maybe even luck that will make them Survivors in their own right.

Diane Botnick was born and raised in the Midwest. She called New York City home for years, writing while working for various organizations in support of the arts. Becoming Sarah is her debut novel. She and her family currently live in Cold Spring, New York.

Instructed by Mwalim Peters via Zoom on Thursdays May 7, 14, 21, 28 2026, 3-5pm

This lecture series explores the hidden history and cultural foundations of Underground Dance Music as an intersection of Black, Latino, and LGBTQ safe-space traditions. Drawing from early 20th-century urban Black social dance scenes, juke joints, and Jamaican sound system culture, the course reveals a lineage often erased by mainstream narratives that begin with the Loft and Disco. Participants will examine the shared values of Underground Dance Music culture, its role in fostering community and identity, and the evolution into Disco, House Music, Techno, and EDM. The series also addresses the persistent American pattern of Black cultural innovations being appropriated and obscured, reclaiming a more accurate and inclusive history of the dance floor.

University of Wellfleet/Preservation Hall

Taught by Maurice Isserman in person on Wednesdays May 13th, 20th, 27th and June 3rd 2026 1-3pm

The American Civil War, 1861-1865, is the central event in the history of the United States of America, not least because its outcome guaranteed that there would be a United States of America in the 160 years that have followed. More Americans died in the Civil War than in all other wars fought by the nation combined. We will consider the war not just as a series of bloody battles, important as they were, but as a moment of political, social, and cultural transformation. The war led to the end of slavery and the establishment of birth-right citizenship, and remade the relationship between the states and the federal government. The Union was preserved through the sacrifices of hundreds of thousands of ordinary citizens, as well as the inspired leadership of some of the greatest individuals in US history, including Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, and Ulysses S. Grant. Class sessions will combine short power-point presentations by the instructor with discussion of weekly assigned readings from James McPherson, Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era.

El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego

On May 30, the Metropolitan Opera’s 2025–26 Live in HD season comes to a close with a live transmission of American composer Gabriela Lena Frank’s first opera, a magical-realist portrait of Mexico’s painterly power couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, with libretto by Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Nilo Cruz. Fashioned as a reversal of the Orpheus and Euridice myth, the story depicts Frida, sung by leading mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard, leaving the underworld on the Day of the Dead and reuniting with Diego, portrayed by baritone Carlos Álvarez. The famously feuding pair briefly relive their tumultuous love, embracing both the passion and the pain before bidding the land of the living a final farewell. Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the Met-premiere staging of Frank’s opera, a “confident, richly imagined score” (The New Yorker) that “bursts with color and fresh individuality” (Los Angeles Times). The vibrant new production, taking enthusiastic inspiration from Frida and Diego’s paintings, is directed and choreographed by Deborah Colker. This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.

The swim takes place in one of Wellfleet's many kettle ponds. Water is always calm and one of the first to warm up in the season. The bike course consists of two 5-mile loops through one of the most beautiful areas you will ride all year. The run is an out-and-back course that turns right near the famed Beachcomber Restaurant, where athletes will catch ocean views before turning at the halfway point (when we say it's all downhill from here, we mean it!).

Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan's mutual admiration and collaborating in the 1960s melded two styles of music that were, for the most part, stand alone entities: folk and country. Nowadays, we describe music that combines country and folk as Americana music, but that genre didn't exist back then. Dylan's 1969 album Nashville Skyline and appearance on the premiere of The Johnny Cash Show on ABC introduced him to a much twangier audience. Similarly, Cash's covering of a few Dylan songs and performing at the Newport Folk Festival opened the ears of many fans of folk music. Boston-based musician Matt York's latest concert program will use both songs and stories to illustrate the importance of these two titans of music.

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Wellfleet Local Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.

From ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ to ‘Free Bird’ — an unforgettable night of strings and light.

An Immersive Candlelit Journey Through Iconic Rock Anthems

“Rock and roll meets classical music in a gorgeously crafted hour of music.”

Step into a world of shimmering light, where legendary rock anthems are reborn through a single violin — played with the fire and intensity of a full band.

This is not just a tribute show. This is Blue Violin — a genre-defying, conservatory-trained virtuoso who has lit up stages from Carnegie Hall to Singapore, and now brings his world tour to Australia, Europe, Asia, and across the U.S.

Often described as “Trans-Siberian Orchestra meets Lindsey Stirling,” Blue Violin delivers fiery virtuosity and cinematic flair in every performance.

Blue Violin has been earning international accolades for genre-bending performances that blur the line between classical virtuosity and rock energy.
