Artwork by Philip Dutra will be displayed at The Gallery at FCTV from May 4 through May 29. Stop in for a casual stroll through coastal scenes and nature trails.
Raised on Cape Cod, Philip Dutra draws on a lifetime of coastal experience to create paintings that emphasize clarity, restraint, and the natural beauty of the sea. Before committing fully to art, he worked in the boating industry, an experience that deepened his understanding of water, movement, and light—elements that now define his work. His background in architectural engineering also informs his sense of structure and composition.
Dutra’s paintings reflect a lifelong connection to the shoreline. Having spent decades immersed in the coastal environment, he finds continual inspiration in its shifting colors and moods. His approach centers on simplifying complex scenes, allowing essential forms and atmosphere to emerge without excess detail.
For Dutra, art is both personal expression and a way to evoke shared memories. He aims to create work that resonates emotionally while maintaining technical discipline. When faced with creative challenges, he steps away, often turning to quiet reflection or movement to regain perspective.
He believes artistic growth comes from persistence, observation, and a willingness to learn through process. The coast remains both his subject and his refuge—a constant source of inspiration that continues to shape his work and vision.
The Gallery at FCTV is located within the Falmouth Community Media Center, which is at 310E Dillingham Ave., easily accessible by Rose Morin Lane. FCTV and Gallery Hours: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu: 10-8pm, Fri: 10am-6pm. Sat: Closed, Sun: 12-8pm.

Falmouth Public Library

The Falmouth Public Library – Main Branch, Young Adult Services, is pleased to announce that we will be holding “one-shot” Dungeons and Dragons campaigns on the regular. A “one-shot” campaign is a 2 or so hour long campaign that players of all experience can enjoy without the commitment of a long term campaign. Our first one-shot campaign is titled “The Wild Sheep Chase”…

When the party’s attempt to grab a rare afternoon of downtime is interrupted by a frantic sheep equipped with a Scroll of Speak to Animals, they’re dragged into a magical grudge match that will test their strength, courage and willingness to endure baa’d puns. Will our heroes be able to overcome a band of transmuted assassins and an extremely bitter apprentice packing dangerously unstable magic items? There’s only one way to find out…

The first one-shot will be held on Wednesday, May 27th, from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM at the Falmouth Public Library – Main Branch in the reference room. A few things to note…there will be several pre-made characters for beginners or anyone looking to change up their game play! If you’d like to use your own character, our master of the dungeon has asked that they are level 4, use standard array to allocate stats, use pencil and paper and the 2024 player’s handbook. That sounds like a lot of detail so please feel free to reach out with any questions!!

“The Wild Sheep Chase” is one of our first one-shots. There will be more to come! Registration is required as there are limited seats at the table. Please register by using our online calendar <a href="https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/2026-may" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/2026-may</a>, emailing <a href="mailto:cjohnson@falmouthpubliclibrary.org">cjohnson@falmouthpubliclibrary.org</a>, or give us a call at 508-457-2555!
