New Exhibit
The Art of the Catboat: A diverse medium expression of the elegant Catboat design.
The Catboat, an elegant display of craftsmanship and beauty, exemplifies the spirit of the American boat design. Joseph Keveney caught this spirit when he built three Catboat models from 1939-1943. Fortunately, his family has generously loaned his boat models to the Cape Cod Maritime Museum, thus becoming the catalyst for our new rotating exhibit, “The Art of the Catboat.” We invited Cape Cod artists to share a variety of unique perspectives, inspired by the Catboat, to display their artwork at the museum’s newest exhibit, scheduled to open for a “sneak peek” during the school vacation week of February 18th-22nd. The full exhibit opens during Cape Cod Maritime Museum’s 2013 season opening on March 12th and runs through July 6th. The next rotating exhibit, “Risky Business: Rum-Running on Cape Cod,” runs from July 10th through December 15th.
