'Newburyport Harbor 2024'
Our Philosophy
At Spirit of Newburyport, we believe that photography is not just about capturing a moment, but about telling a story. We strive to create images that evoke emotion, capture the essence of our subjects, and tap into the spiritual affinity of the area.
Coming Soon,..the Story behind 'Newburyport Harbor 2024', the first image to be produced by the Spirit of Newburyport since 2019, in the 'Post Pandemic' era.
A classic comeback story.
About Spirit of Newburyport
April 2024 ; I'm Back
Its been awhile. This is my first post regarding the Spirit of Newburyport in years. Not quite sure where to start.
I've spent the last two years deciding on whether or not to 'officially' revive the Spirit of Newburyport post pandemic (2020). In September of 2022 I came back from Florida after creating the first phase of the Spirit of St Augustine. I spent a couple months in a 'trial' run of the Newburyport Firehouse Arts and Shanty project down on the waterfront.
Last year, in 2023, we came back after yet again another 'temporary move' up to the Pop Up Park on Merrimack Street, just adjacent to the Firehouse Center of Arts.
After a rough few months in transition beginning in June, I headed up a experimental 'come back' operation that lasted through the rest of the year with the first 'Winter Market' since 2018. Now we are back for our first full season since 2019, beginning next month with an open house on May 4th during Newburyport's Artwalk. Watch my Gallery Blog for more information.

At the Newburyport Firehouse Art and Culture Shanties
The Newburyport Arts and Culture Shanties Program seeks to provide a vibrant and historically-based centralized forum for local artists and artisans to collectively join together with the common mission of bringing locally made art to the North Shore region and beyond. The goal of the Newburyport Arts & Culture Shanty Program is to help local artists/artisans and cultural organizations increase recognition and sales; act as a community-building forum through a common artistic mission; and increase traffic to local businesses.
