FIT Authors Talk: Professor Ron Amato

Join us virtually on September 18, 5-6 pm, for our first FIT Authors Talk of the semester with Photography Professor Ron Amato. He will present his newest book, Artists of Provincetown.

Artists of Provincetown, by fine art photographer Ron Amato, seeks to not only celebrate, but preserve the legacy of one of the nation’s oldest art colonies, now facing an uncertain future due to rising property values, corporate invasion, and what, in the book’s introduction, Pulitzer Prize–winning author Michael Cunningham calls, “catastrophic expense.”

Made over a period of eight years, Artists of Provincetown contains 84 quietly immersive portraits that illustrate the breadth and depth of this 125-year-old community of painters, writers, photographers and sculptors.

This virtual event is free and open to the public.
