Calling All Artists And Crafters


Do you have hidden artistic talents but no time for classes? Are you developing your artistic skills but need a little guidance? Are you an accomplished artist or craftsperson who would like to share your knowledge? Regardless of your skill level there is a place for you in the new “Friends in Art” group now being formed.


Our goal is to provide an informal and nurturing setting every two weeks where artistic people can gather to share experiences, knowledge and encouragement.


Our “launch party” will be held on Thursday, September 16th from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Oscar Foss Memorial Library in Barnstead (across from the Town Hall). Bring your enthusiasm and ideas, enjoy refreshments and be part of this exciting endeavor. Please park across the street or near the basketball court. For info or questions, please call Janice Metzger at 269-8301.
