Join us from November 5th - 29th for Turbulence: Can the Center Hold? a solo exhibition by Stacy Latt Savage Savage, a Professor of Art and Design in Sculpture at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Savage’s sculptures are reflections of our turbulent times and a sense of global unrest. We live in a time when the delicate balance of life seems threatened by forces beyond our control. Her recent work in this exhibition is a response to the pandemic and our life post this global event. While each of Savage’s sculptures embody a visceral tension and spiraling momentum, Savage aims to find the sublime within fear and chaos. She forms and shapes raw material until her sculpture harnesses an energy that mirrors the unpredictability of life. Savage received her MFA from Cornell University and her BA from Wells College. She exhibits her work nationally and regionally in a variety of venues including museums, galleries, and public outdoor settings. Savage maintains a commitment to collaboration and her community which have led to numerous public commissions as well as curatorial and community-engaged projects. Gallery Hours: Wednesdays: 5 - 7 pm Thursdays & Fridays: 4 - 8 pm Saturdays & Sundays: 12 - 5 pm This project is supported in part by FRACC through the TDI Creative Catalyst Grant.

Hosted in partnership with New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park, Dock-u-mentaries is a free film series that explores themes and topics related to the commercial fishing industry and the working waterfront. On January 17, 2025, FHC will be screening Voices of the Sea. In this tiny, remote Cuban fishing village, virtually every family has a relative living abroad and everyone is utterly dependent on the sea. Dilapidated Russian trucks ferry water to a population lacking drinking water, the shops are empty and basic transportation is nonexistent. Voices of the Sea is the story of a 30-something woman longing for a better life. Her first husband, and the father of her two eldest sons, drowned trying to escape Cuba on a raft with 30 people on board (only one survived). She’s tried to escape once herself, and now wants to try again. Read more here. Total runtime: 90 minutes This film screening is a special tie-in event with the Center's newest exhibit, Casting A Wider Net. Dock-u-mentaries is and will always be a free program. Please consider making a donation to support the Fishing Heritage Center’s programs and events. Visit FHC’s website to make a donation.
