Visit the link in our bio to see more of the paint

Visit the link in our bio to see more of the paintings, drawings, and photos we've received from the NPT community celebrating what they love about Nantucket buildings. Thanks to AJ Heath for this image of Idlemoor. We'd still love to see more images depicting what you love about your Nantucket home, or any building on island. Send submissions, along with a brief caption, to rcarr@nantucketpreservation.org.

Last week, we asked Nantucketers or anyone who loves Nantucket to send us artistic representations of what they love about their Nantucket house, or any house on the island. Check out what received so far at the link in our bio, and add your contribution by emailing an image with a brief caption to rcarr@nantucketpreservation.org! Images: RL Smith, Doug Rose, Michelle Whelan.

Spending increased time at home can feel isolating

Spending increased time at home can feel isolating, so at NPT, we're asking all of our Nantucket community - whether you are physically on the island, or just dreaming of the time when you will be - to show us what you like most about your home, or any building here on Nantucket. Send us a photo, a drawing, or another artistic representation about what you like most about a house, or any Nantucket building, along with a brief caption, and we'll share what we receive on our website. You can submit via email to rcarr@nantucketpreservation.org, or through direct message on Instagram. (📷: 4 Traders Lane and 5 Elbow Lane)

NPT recently got a peek at exciting work going on

NPT recently got a peek at exciting work going on at the Pacific Club. Plaster and lime mortar expert Pen Austin and her team have uncovered and preserved 19th century murals dating from the Club's use as a lodge for the Masons and the Order of the Eastern Star.

How to make a Nantucket Dream Dollhouse? First, gather some intrepid volunteers! Here you see NPT volunteers, Beth Davies, Aille Sweeney, and Rowan Blake dying shingles gray and gluing them together to make siding. The one-of-a-kind Nantucket Dream Dollhouse will be featured at our annual Sense of Place Exhibition and Auction this summer. Stay tuned for updates as dollhouse construction progresses. Many thanks to Michael Sweeney, Barbara Halstead, Gussie Beaugrand, and Beth Davies for taking on this project – we can’t wait to see the results!”
