Rockport: Motif No. 1 & the Artists

An art-colony walk around Cape Ann's most-painted harbor

Behind every gallery in Rockport is a patron, a fight, or both. Five stops over 2.9 miles, about an hour and a half of walking. Each one starts talking the moment you reach it, so you can keep your eyes on the street instead of a screen.

There is no start time to make — walk it in one go, or leave the rest for another afternoon.
