Looking for Artists to Teach, Display, Demonstrate


The Monadnock Crafters Guild is looking for local artists to teach classes, display, and demonstrate their art work. The Monadnock Crafters Guild is a volunteer run, non-profit organization. The goal is to inspire and promote the excellence and growth of arts and crafts of New England and to foster an environment that encourages creative expression and nurtures new generations of crafts people and artists who will carry on these living traditions. The Guild accomplishes this mission by providing artists and crafters opportunities to share, show and demonstrate their creative talents and provide opportunities for continued learning and enrichment to the community. If you have any questions, contact them by phone 603-784-5154, or email: monadnockcraftersguild@gmail.com, or visit their web site: www.monadnockcraftersguild.org


Artist Entrepreneurial Grants


Quarterly grants from the NH State Council on the Arts support professional development opportunities for NH artists, especially focusing on developing entrepreneurial skills (marketing, web site development, etc.) by working with consultants, attending conferences and workshops, and via mentorships between master level and early career artists. 40% of grant recipients in FY07 were visual artists. The grant range is $250 to $1000, with an average grant award of about $600. Upcoming application deadlines are April 1, July 1 and Oct. 1. For guidelines, see the Council's web site at www.nh.gov/nharts/grants/artists/artistentrepren.htm.


The Park Theatre in Jaffrey


As part of the re-opening of the Park Theatre, which was built in 1922 and has been dark for the past thirty years, a Fifth Mural has been created to celebrate the future of the theatre in the twenty-first century. The Fifth Mural, comprised of 288 individual panels, was created by artists and students and depicts life in the Monadnock Region. The mural has been installed at the Emergency entrance to the Monadnock Community Hospital. It will reside there until the completion of renovations at the Park Theater which is estimated to be approximately two years. Then it will be displayed as part of the Theatre's permanent collection.
