Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill

Frommer's Review

Send ahead for a brochure, and you could work some learning into your vacation. A great many celebrated writers and artists -- from poet Alan Dugan to painter Edith Vonnegut -- emerge from their summer hideaways to offer courses, lectures, and exhibits at this bustling little complex, an 1880s horse barn with windmill (now home to the administrative offices). The roster changes slightly from year to year, but you can rest assured that the stellar instructors will be at the top of their form in this stimulating environment. The center also offers lots of children's workshops for artists age 7 and up. Castle Hill Evenings, which are $5 lectures and readings, take place Tuesdays in July and August at 8pm at the Wellfleet Library.
