SUMMARY:Walking Tour: Ed & Jo Hopper’s Houses\, Views from Portuguese Hill
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 8\, 2025\n\n10:30 a.m. 12:00 p.m.\n\nCape Ann Museum Courtyard\, Downtown Campus\n\n27 Pleasant St\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\n\n$10 for CAM Members\, $20 for non-members\n\nRegistration Required\n\nExplore the specific sites in the area of Gloucester known as Portuguese Hill depicted by renowned American realist painter Edward Hopper (1882-1967). Hopper is known to have painted in Gloucester on five separate occasions in the first decades of the 20th century. His paintings from this period capture the local landscape and architecture in a loosely rendered\, light-filled style and are considered by many to be some of his finest works. Also included are sites painted by Josephine Nivison Hopper (1883-1968)\, Hopper's wife and artist in her own right\, whose work gained recognition long before her future husband's success. Learn how this hillside neighborhood that the Hoppers travelled together inspired their artwork\, as well as the role the area plays in Gloucester history.\n\nIf you have enjoyed one of our Hopper's Houses Downtown tours\, the Portuguese Hill tour takes you to another side of the city to see different views. It's well worth the experience!\n\nStroll with a CAM Docent for about 1 1/2 hours towards Portuguese Hill and back to downtown Gloucester. This walking tour includes steep stairs and a length of the hill.\n\nWhere to Meet?\n\nThough the Downtown Campus is currently closed for renovations until the spring of 2026\, the tour will gather at the courtyard attached to the Museum on 27 Pleasant Street. Tours are light rain or shine.\n\nPhoto Credit: CAM docent leading walking tour\, CAM staff photo.
