28 members of the Truro Group exhibited their work at the Truro Public Library. Also on display, as part of our 2010 Mentoring program, was the work of 10 Apprentices who attend the Truro Central School. A well-attended reception was held Sunday afternoon, September 12.

More than 60 Truro artists are members of the Truro Group. We work in oils, pastels, watercolors, clay, wood, fabric, photography, jewelry and found objects.

The Truro Group also works with Truro Central School students in our mentorship program.

While Truro has always been a place where many artists live, the idea that few ever had a chance to show their work was an important factor in how the Truro Group was formed.

During the spring of 2006, The Truro Group was formed as an organization with the primary purpose of displaying Truro artists' works in any medium. Founding members of the organization include Joan Pereira, Ed Yaconetti, Fred Gaechter, Joyce Johnson, Anne Brock, and Susan Kurtzman. Added to these six are six others who have joined the Board: Cathy Skrowon, Nancy Silva, Pat Canavari, John Tinkham, Phil Redo and Marinna Matricardi.
