Studio Visit with Artist, Robert Henry
As April Kingsley said in The Village Voice, "Henry-watching is always a fascinating activity." And Robert Henry himself has said that while he knows a consistent, signature style is good for the business of art, "I hate to repeat myself." Thus, every season brings a new Henry adventure. Painting for over 70 years, and deeply connected to the Provincetown arts scene, we are eager to visit with Henry at his Wellfleet studio to learn more about those adventures and the latest chapter of his life as an artist.

Joe Diggs is a multigenerational Cape Codder. Joe’s experiences and observations implicitly inform and drive the work he creates - often sharing the black experience that many people don’t ever see or can’t understand. We’ll be talking to Joe about those stories that can be found in his rich multi-layered, multi-textured paintings at his studio in Osterville, down a gravel road overlooking Micah’s Pond, a “sacred place” says Joe, that belonged to his grandfather, then his father, and now Diggs.
