Art Affairs: ArtWeek makes a splash with MASS appeal

4/26/2018

We hope to find the answer to this perplexing question when ArtWeek opens across Massachusetts with a ten-day event, encompassing one-thousand venues, held in over 70 cities and towns, and supported by nearly $2.5 million of in-kind media advertising and editorial support.

Other than this small feat, the organization, and its partners intend to entice hundreds of thousands of people to get up, get out, and take the opportunity to explore and create.

Volvo Ocean Race to Stop in Newport

A few hundred or so miles off the coast of southeast Brazil, nearly 100 men and women are racing toward their dream —sailing 45,000 nautical miles around the world.

Sailors from all over the globe train for years, even decades, to try to win the storied Volvo Ocean Race, which takes crew members across four oceans, six continents, and 12 landmark host cities in an eight-month, leg-by-leg, all-out, around-the-clock ocean marathon through the world’s toughest waters.

Bristol County Savings Bank opens its doors at the New Bedford Seaport with an impressive restoration

New Bedford Seaport Welcomes Bristol County Savings Bank to a New Home

The Candleworks building, circa 1810, located across from the New Bedford Harbor, is now home to Bristol County Savings Bank (BCSB), which was founded in 1846. One of three locations in New Bedford, this newly opened branch is the gem in its collection.

The building, which housed a factory that made candles from whale oil, has been transformed into bank offices atop a restaurant that has also opened recently. This new location has already begun to play an important role in New Bedford’s renaissance.

Housed at 70 North Water Street, alongside the cobblestones where whalers and sailors walked the history-worn streets—to and from the sea—the newly renovated offices are best described as works of art by any and all measurements.

Fascinated by what we learned, but still curious, we sent staffers to visit the home and attend an event called Legendary Love—A Luxurious Evening of Chocolate & Wine at the House Love Built.

Cake Show & Competition

4/26/2018

XOXO Tantalizes Enthusiastic Crowds at Bristol Community College’s 11th Cake Show & Competition.

The Silver City Galleria was abuzz on April 7–8, when culinary aficionados, pastry students, and others came together to celebrate a specialized craft that everyone can enjoy—cake design.

And, while most of us love these fancy and delicious desserts, the event was more about the art-form and the development of a finished product.

Through the combination of concept and strategy plus milk, eggs, and lots of sugar, many of the artists found success.
