Mass Audubon at Wellfleet Bay

The ever-changing coastline of Cape Cod is vibrant, diverse, and dynamic. Barrier beaches, salt marshes, tidal flats, coastal heathlands, and maritime forests are just some of the incredible systems we will explore in this series of hikes that celebrate these unique and essential habitats dotting our coastline.

Traverse the expansive dunes of the Provincelands as we hike towards the Race Point light in search of whales, seals, sea ducks, alcids, and more! This hike is 4mi in length, and portions include walking on soft sand.

During the program, we make stops to enjoy birds, other wildlife, and the area's unique cultural history. We will also take water breaks and stop for lunch.

Paul Revere Resists! A (very) Short Play

As the United States celebrates the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Lexington-Concord, the start of the Revolutionary War, this fresh reading of the classic Henry Wadsworth Longfellow poem Paul Revere’s Ride highlights personal stories of Americans in that historical moment and this contemporary one - ordinary people standing up to kings. The Wellfleet production is part of a nationwide event, with readings being held in living rooms, bookstores, theaters, bars, places of worship, parks, and backyards in Boston, Chicago, Florida, New Hampshire, North Carolina, New York City, Michigan, Texas, and Wisconsin, with more productions being added daily.
With a running time of only about half an hour, Paul Revere Resists will prompt discussion, support solidarity, and energize defiance of the brutal betrayal by the Trump regime of all that Americans fought and died for, beginning with that legendary midnight ride. Please join us!

The free reading features actors, Amanda Collins, David Fraioli, Carryl Lynn, Lewis Wheeler, Bates Wilder and is directed by Jeff Zinn.

General admission tickets are free and can be reserved by clicking this link.

John Anderson and Lynn C. Miller

April 24, May 1, 8, 15, 22

Thursdays, 2-4PM on Zoom

This course examines texts by and about Edith Wharton, with a central focus on her bestselling 1905 novel The House of Mirth. Both instructors have written texts in which Wharton appears as a character, and these also will be assigned reading for the class. Lynn C. Miller’s novel, The Angel of Devastation, a work-in-progress, portrays Wharton writing The House of Mirth, placing the novel in a biographical context, juxtaposed with the story of a contemporary playwright adapting The House of Mirth for the stage. John Dennis Anderson’s play, A Cultivated Friendship, co-authored by Karen Vuranch, portrays Wharton at the end of her life and focuses on her close friendship with the much-younger writer Louis Bromfield.

The class will be assigned to read selected chapters from The Angel of Devastation before the first class meeting. The second and third classes will be devoted to The House of Mirth. The fourth class will cover short stories by Wharton that will include “Roman Fever” and “All Souls,’” and the last class will discuss A Cultivated Friendship.

Artist Statement:

"Over the years, I have always been drawn to the Cape Cod landscape. Having a vacation home and now my permanent residence have given me ample opportunity to hunt for and explore the many faces of the landscape. The dunes and marshes are a strong draw for me, especially in the late day light with all its cast shadows and strong lights and darks. For me the late day light on the Cape is magical. It’s as if the spaces between the layers of the landscape seem to expand and often glow. Over the years I have found inspiration from Falmouth to Provincetown. A show at Preservation Hall in the heart of the lower Cape seems most appropriate for my oil paintings. Mostly self-taught, I studied with Jessie Pollock and Jeanne Duval in New Hampshire, and with Joe McGurl, Bill Davis and Ed Chesnovitch on Cape Cod."

Mass Audubon

The ever-changing coastline of Cape Cod is vibrant, diverse, and dynamic. Barrier beaches, salt marshes, tidal flats, coastal heathlands, and maritime forests are just some of the incredible systems we will explore in this series of hikes that celebrate these unique and essential habitats dotting our coastline.

Nauset beach is a 10-mile-long barrier beach stretching out along the Atlantic Ocean. During our hike we'll search for piping plovers and other nesting shorebirds as we make our way to the gem of Pleasant Bay, Pochet Island. This hike is 5mi in length and much of the hike includes walking on soft sand.

During the program, we make stops to enjoy birds, other wildlife, and the area's unique cultural history. We will also take water breaks and stop for lunch.

Metropolitan Opera Live in HD at WHAT

Salome

Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts his first Met performances of Strauss’s white-hot one-act tragedy, which receives its first new production at the company in 20 years. Claus Guth, one of Europe’s leading opera directors, gives the biblical story—already filtered through the beautiful and strange imagination of Oscar Wilde’s play—a psychologically perceptive, Victorian-era setting rich in symbolism and subtle shades of darkness and light. Headlining the new staging is soprano Elza van den Heever as the abused and unhinged antiheroine, who demands the head of Jochanaan, sung by celebrated baritone Peter Mattei. Tenor Gerhard Siegel is Salome’s lecherous stepfather, King Herod, with mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung as his wife, Herodias, and tenor Piotr Buszewski as Narraboth. This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.

Languages of Nature Languages of Art

A Movement and Nature Workshop

LNLA is a movement-sound based workshop that explores the origin of primary language. We discover that this is the kinship language that humans have in common with the natural world. This is an evolutionary and developmental exploration beginning with guided mediation in-utero. We extend this to discover how primary language is core to art-making. We play with movement games, visual art-making, and poetry as forerunners for making mini dances. With these’experiences, we immerse ourselves through primary languaging with the natural world. Based on our encounters we create a ceremonial dance piece honoring our kinship with nature. We work with improvisational musicians. No previous study in the various arts required.

Special: A Staged Reading - Written, Produced, and Directed by Ann Meredith

Five best friends are assaulted by their high school math teacher. Throughout the years the friends knew that they all shared a special bond that went deeper than most friendships. An opportunity presents itself for them to reclaim their stolen innocence through finding their voice and speaking the truth. They must find the courage to break the silence in front of the whole town to let them know of this monster that walks among them.

'Outermost cliff and solitary dune, the plain of ocean and the far, bright brims of the world, meadow land and marsh and ancient moor;This is the outer Cape.' Henry Beston, The Outermost House

From Henry David Thoreau to Mary Oliver, Cape Cod's beautiful scenery has acted as a muse. Together, we will trace the steps of the artists and writers who have found inspiration in this constantly changing landscape. We will begin the field school by creating our own nature journals. Then, traveling across the outer cape, we will visit the special sites that led to the formation of important works of art and literature while recording our experiences. On one of the days, we will explore the town of Provincetown, uncovering its unique literary history with a special stop at the Mary Heaton Vorse house, now home to the Provincetown Arts Society.

Please pack a brown bag lunch, snacks, and plenty of drinking water.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables. A detailed schedule will be prepared and sent to registrants at approximately 3-4 weeks in advance.

June 14 & 15

During this active weekend we will take the road less traveled, cover new ground, and experience the Cape at a beautiful time of year. Our extended hikes will explore the backwoods, remote beaches, dramatic dunes, quiet kettle ponds, and sheltering woodlands of the Outer Cape and take us to "hidden" parts of the Cape Cod National Seashore and local conservation areas that the average visitor and local rarely explore.

The Outer Cape will be the focus of our hikes. We can expect to experience quiet pine woods, dramatic bluffs, hills and valleys, peeks of the Atlantic Ocean, subdued saltmarshes, and time on the Outer Beach.

Each walk will avarage 5 miles in length and on varied terrain - from established wooded trails to beach sand and up-and-down a few hills and dunes.

While the routes of our walks do not allow for shortcuts, and the goal is to walk at a steady pace, we will also stop to enjoy the birds, wildlife, and local history. We will also take water breaks and stop for lunch. A shorter sunset walk at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary is also schedules - a perfect way to the end the first day!

Please pack a brown bag lunch, drinking waster, and snacks for each day hike.

Please dress in layers and dress for the weather (we will walk in all weather conditions). Wear comfortable, sturdy shoes for walking. You might consider bringing binoculars, and a notepad or journal- you never know when inspiration strikes! A backpack in which to carry your gear is also needed.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables.

Separated from the mainland and surrounded by water, islands are alluring because of their remote and unique nature. This field school will feature some of the unique islands of the Cape. From Great Island in Wellfleet to the tiny isles of Pleasant Bay, we will uncover the unique geologic history of these places.

These islands are also home to a wide array of wildlife. Along the way, we will search for diamondback terrapins, horseshoe crabs, and a variety of bird species, including nesting shorebirds. This active field school will feature both hiking and kayaking explorations.

Important Reminders: Previous (recent) paddling experience and good swimming ability are required. This course does not provide paddling instruction for beginners. Participants must have basic paddling skills. Open water bodies in which you'll be experiencing both wind and tide is not where you want to learn how to steer a boat!

Participants may choose among available single kayaks. All equipment is provided; all participants must wear life jackets.

August 2 and 3

There is no better place to explore and study the topic of shorebird ecology than the beautiful coastal communities of Cape Cod at the height of shorebird migration. This course is designed to give the novice birder, or those inexperienced with coastal birds, the skills to identify the 'peeps,' plovers, and other shorebird species.

During the course, we will touch upon topics such as identification, biology, behavior, and migration. Our discussions will also cover the issues and threats these birds face in coastal environments. Field excursions to barrier beaches, salt marshes, tidal rivers, and other unique ecosystems of the Outer Cape will provide opportunities to become acquainted with the diverse array of shorebirds for which the region is famous. Gulls, terns and herons will also be conspicuous inhabitants of these areas and will not be ignored!

Field walks may average 4-5 miles in length and on varied terrain-from established trails to beach sand and up-and-down a few hills and dunes. While there is considerable walking, most is done at a leisurely pace as we look for birds. Please pack a brown bag lunch, snacks, and plenty of drinking water. Sunscreen is also a good idea! Please dress in layers and dress for the weather (we will walk in all weather conditions). Wear comfortable, sturdy shoes for walking. Binoculars are highly recommended - you may consider bringing a spotting scope as well.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables.

This course is designed to offer unique opportunities to learn more about the turtles of Cape Cod with an emphasis on the threatened diamondback terrapin. In early summer, female diamondback terrapins leave the salt marsh to lay eggs in adjacent uplands. Several months later tiny turtles emerge from their eggshells, tunnel to the surface, and head to the marsh.

For over 30 years we have been studying the populations of terrapins in Wellfleet Bay. Through nesting surveys, mark and recapture studies, radio telemetry, and habitat and prey analysis, we have built a solid foundation of data to begin understanding the life histories of these animals and the human impacts affecting them.

During this two-day field school you will gain first-hand knowledge of turtle biology; monitor nests for hatching activity; weigh, measure, and release hatchlings; and document nesting success at various Outer Cape locations.

Indoor presentations will complement our field studies. A lecture on the first evening will provide a good overview of diamondback terrapins and their natural history. On the second afternoon there will be a lecture focusing on research conducted to study hatchling movements using radio tags, and an update on nesting statistics in our region.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables. A detailed schedule will be prepared and sent to registrants at approximately 3-4 weeks in advance.

Sept 19, 20 & 21

From deep blue water to gently swaying marsh grass, the coast of Massachsetts is dynamic, diverse, and iconic. Learn about the diverse habitats and dynamic natural systems that occur where land meets sea, and their importance to wildlife and combating climate change.

This course takes a unique approach to studying the coast of Cape Cod as kayaks provide a great way to explore the more remote and private areas of the Outer Cape that are inaccessible by foot or larger boats. While we will spend the majority of the time paddling on the water, each day does include short stops to get out and explore beaches and uplands on foot.

Over the weekend, this course will explore a multitude of coastal ecosystems, habitats and natural processes. Field trips and topics will include (but are not limited to) the role of glaciers in chain of kettle ponds, salt marsh science in an iconic tidal river and beach and dune ecology of Great Island.

Important Reminders: Previous (recent) paddling experience and good swimming ability are required. This course does not provide paddling instruction for beginners. Participants must have basic paddling skills. Open water bodies in which you'll be experiencing both wind and tide is not where you want to learn how to steer a boat!

Participants may choose among available single kayaks. All equipment is provided; all participants must wear life jackets. We recommend that you bring sunscreen, windbreaker, hat, and drinking water. There are no facilities, such as restrooms or water fountains, at the meeting places.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables. A detailed schedule will be prepared and sent to registrants at approximately 3-4 weeks in advance.

Birding on the Cape during fall migration offers incredible diversity. Resident species mingle with southbound migrants and early arriving winter birds. We will explore the Outer Cape's barrier beaches, salt marshes, tidal flats, and woodlands in search of shorebirds, raptors, seabirds, songbirds, and ducks. This field school also features a whale watch out of Provincetown to search for pelagic birds!

During the course, we will touch upon topics such as identification, breeding biology, foraging ecology, and migration-including a fantastic opportunity to experience bird banding through a demonstration by Certified Master Bander James Junda. There is nothing as exciting as seeing a bird up-close and in-hand, and to learn what researchers can learn about birds only through banding! That evening, an indoor presentation will complement our field experiences.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables.
