The Friends of Westport Island History is excited to announce the inaugural series of Westport Island notecards based on local paintings just in time for holiday giving. The images are of selected sites on the Westport Island History Trail and scenic images of the island’s iconic rock, all created by local and visiting artists.
The images depict Westport Island Town Hall, original artwork by Sarah Rhinelander; Community Church by Ann Springhorn; Squire Tarbox Inn by the late Barbara Cleaves Perry; North End Baptist Church by Maizie Colby Argondizza; and four paintings by Massachusetts artist William Oberst of the Upper Mill tidal site and Kehail Point. The Friends is grateful for the generosity of the artists or owners of the artwork for permission to use these amazing images.
This beautiful and affordable gift, which will benefit Westport Island history, will be on sale at the History Center and at the town office. For more information on ordering cards, please contact FOWIH19@gmail.com
