The Sandwich Home Industries opened for its 89th season on Thursday May 21st with a gala wine and cheese reception, giving attendees a first look at the latest collection of hand-crafted items from the juried craftsmen of the League of NH Craftsmen.  

Founded in 1926 as a shop that gave its neighbors a way to sell their hand-made products and attend classes to improve their skills, the Industries went on to become a founding member of the League. Over 175 juried members show their work at the gallery, providing a wide selection of  locally made hand-crafted items that make for very special summer wedding gifts.
 
The Industries also continues it long history of arts and crafts education with its summer schedule of classes and workshops, beginning on June 26th with a one-day workshop  teaching how to make an intricate, elegant  chain maille  bracelet with Deb Fairchild., juried League of NH Craftsmen member from  Hampstead, NH.  

New this year is a 5 day weaving class  on July 6 - 10  suitable for weavers of all experience levels .This class will provide 5 days of intensive study, with each student working with the  instructor individually at their level. Instructor Sara Goodman is an award-winning weaver from Lyme NH, who enjoys spending time in the Lakes Region each summer.  A full list of classes and enrollment information can be found  at
www.nhcrafts.org/center-sandwich.
 
Sandwich Home Industries is located at 32 Main Street, on the Green, in Center Sandwich.  Gallery  hours are Monday - Saturday 10am -5pm, Sunday 12 - 5pm thru mid-October. For more information, call 603-284-6831 or visit our website

Jon Greenawalt, of Personal Mastery Programs, writes:

Those who visit Sandwich, NH, often find themselves planning to return. Some even return here to live. What makes Sandwich such a prized destination? An invigorating atmosphere, friendly people and quiet streets. Clear waters and scenic views in the White Mountains. Plenty to see and do embedded in the vibrant spirit of an historic New England town. I am grateful to be part of this exceptional community.

Grateful thanks to the Alfred Quimby Fund, the Town of Sandwich and Wedco for their support.
