We had over sixty folks pop by to check out our second exhibition opening at the new Provincetown Pride Center with artist and activist Jeremy Novy @jeremynovy , whose stencil-work has been popping up all over town this week on Commercial Street and Provincetown Brewing Co. @ptownbrewingco Jason’s sense of queer community through his artwork brings us together, and we are grateful to have his pieces up through the remainder of the month.

The exhibit will be open to the public with special extended hours for Bear Week this Friday (12 noon to 8pm), Saturday (10am to 6pm) and Sunday (12 noon to 6pm), with Novy's works available for sale to collectors during these times. Special thanks to Jeremy for the signature koi fish that now live on the sidewalks on 115 Bradford Street 🐠

Not all the nightlife during Bear Week happens in the bars; this Sunday, July 9th at 8pm join the Provincetown Conservation Trust @provincetownconservationtrust and Herpetologist Scott Smyers in an exploration of Amphibians and Insects After Dark as part of our Camp Provincetown initiative.

On this nighttime walk, we will listen to calling frogs and insects along Provincetown's Old Colony nature Pathway and White Cedar Swamps while discussing the life cycles, adaptations, behavior, and ecology of outer Cape amphibians.

Flashlights provided: be sure to wear long pants and sleeves, and appropriate footwear.
