League of NH Craftsmen Fair is in Full Swing
Monday at the Fair was a wonderful day with big crowds and beautiful weather.
The League has made a couple of major changes in setup this year. The Living with Crafts exhibit has been brought out into a wonderful tent in the middle of the grounds. It has been rebranded as
Art, Craft & Design: The Exhibition. If you go to the fair, this tent is a must see.
The food setup has also been re-imagined. Really nice!
If you haven't been, you still have time. The fair runs through Sunday, August 11.

Claude Dupuis won Best in Wood Turning for his Blue Diamond tall segmented vase.
Claude's Blue Diamond was featured in the Spring 10th Anniversary issue of

Wonderful work by both artisans.
