Along the Coast

Curated by Bruce Brown

March 14 - May 4, 2024

About the Show

We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch - we are going back from whence we came. — John F. Kennedy

Curated by Bruce Brown, Along the Coast features six photographers offering wonderfully varied views of our dramatic coastline, highlighting our deep connection to the sea. In certain photographs, that connection is direct: fishing boats, shipbuilding, human activity. While in others, the connection is abstract, visceral: seemingly untouched nature ranging from the serene to the sublime. In all of these scenes along the coast, we feel that pull to the ocean, that unmistakable yearning to return to source.
