Art Show & Sale - Celebrate the New England Coast
The show is a major fundraiser for the Great Bay Stewards the friends group for the Great Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and the Great Bay Discovery Center.
In addition to the art and fine crafts, many of the participating artists have donated works to be raffled off and the Stewards are raffling off a spring themed wheelbarrow filled with gardening tools, potting soil and seeds. Over fifty local artists and makers of fine crafts are represented in the show. The Great Bay Stewards receive thirty-percent of the profits from this show to help fund the education programs at the Center and environmental projects throughout the Great Bay Estuary.
The reception and show are free and refreshments will be served. On Saturday there will be live music in the afternoon just in time for tea. Come and shop for early Mother's Day gifts or for some spring decorating projects.
The Center is located just off Route 33 at 89 Depot Road on the Greenland/Stratham town line. It is the educational facility for the Great Bay National Restuarine Research Reserve which is funded by NOAA and administered by NH Fish and Game.
