Flooding postpones Fall Show

The Swampscott Arts Association had to postpone the opening for the annual fall show due to town-wide flooding last week. We have been able to reschedule and the opening reception is now this Thursday evening October 13, from 6 - 8pm at Marian Court College on Little's Point. As always, the opening reception is free and open to the public.

SAA Summer Picnic

After a brief rain, Ruth Rook's garden just sparkled, and we moved outside.

First a delicious picnic meal, then a brief meeting, and finally the raffle was held.
