The Rotunda Exhibit…with different views
June 27 - July 13, 2025

A Celebration of Art, Community, and the Iconic Tucks Point Rotunda

This summer, the heart of Manchester-by-the-Sea comes alive with The Rotunda Exhibit — a multi-day art experience celebrating our town’s beloved Rotunda at Tucks Point. This immersive exhibit brings together local and regional artists’ interpretations of the iconic structure, showcasing its beauty, symbolism, and timeless presence along our coast.

Explore Manchester like never before.

Rather than being housed in a single gallery, art installations will be scattered across local businesses throughout town. As you tour the exhibit, you’ll have the chance to discover new perspectives of the Rotunda while also discovering (and supporting!) the small businesses that make our community so vibrant.

Presented by the Manchester-by-the-Sea Cultural Council

The exhibit is made possible by the Manchester-by-the-Sea Cultural Council, whose mission is to promote access, education, and diversity in the arts, humanities, and interpretive sciences. By funding community-driven cultural programming, the Council strengthens the creative fabric of Manchester and ensures that the arts remain a vital part of daily life here.

Whether you’re a longtime resident or a first-time visitor, The Rotunda Exhibit offers a unique opportunity to see Manchester through the eyes of its artists. Grab a map, start your journey, and take in the spirit of the Rotunda—reflected in brush strokes, sculpture, photography, and more.
