Twenty Summers – Opening Party
May 15, 2024 at Twenty Summers Annex
Season Eleven Twenty Summers, rooted in Provincetown’s Hawthorne Barn, celebrates artistic freedom, offering resources, residencies, and a platform for originality and innovation, honoring its rich legacy. Kick off Season Eleven and come celebrate our new space, Twenty Summers Annex at 494 Commercial! Come by to learn more about the upcoming festival and enjoy *complimentary* appetizers, and drinks.
While the Hawthorne Barn will remain our spiritual home and the main location for our residencies and events, we are thrilled to announce that we are taking on some new space, on Commercial Street in the heart of the East End. This new space will be an Annex to the Barn during our May and June season, and allow us to program the other ten months of the year. We are still conceptualizing what the space can be for us but you can expect to see events, readings and exhibitions there, and so much more.
Twenty Summers is an incubator for art and ideas. It imagines a more equitable and sustainable future, twenty summers from today. The organization was founded in Provincetown’s historic Hawthorne Barn, and we honor its legacy of artistic freedom by providing resources, residencies, and a platform for original projects and innovative ideas. We believe that, in the right context, creative minds can find solutions to our hardest problems.
