About
Twenty Summers is a new nonprofit arts center in Provincetown, Massachusetts, founded to foster public engagement with art and artists, and to honor the legacy of art in Provincetown.

Its annual season launched in 2014 and has hosted musicians such as Stephin Merritt of the Magnetic Fields, Kaki King, and David Wax Museum, authors and writers such as Michael Cunningham, Adam Gopnik, and Geraldine Brooks, and artists and photographers such as Jamie Beck, Jim Hodges, and David Hilliard.
