Capizzo, Barbara

Capizzo started her gallery on Old South Wharf in 1990. Before that, she displayed her work in a space on Straight Wharf, barely a stone’s throw away. She has become an established figure on the island art scene. Alongside her husband Vito, Nantucket High School’s venerable football coach, her life has been firmly rooted on Nantucket since the couple moved to the island in 1964. She presently exhibits at the Sosebee Gallery on Old South Wharf.
