2021 Easter Open House & Egg Hunt

Join us for our annual Easter Open House and Egg Hunt.

Saturday, April 3rd from 10-12

 

The Egg Hunt will be held outdoors (weather permitting) at 10:30 sharp.
Please have children bring a basket or bag to collect eggs. There will be a few eggs with special prizes!

We will be providing quick take portraits on a special Easter set with complimentary take home 4x6 prints. Ordering of portraits at our special volume pricing will also be available. We ask that in place of a session fee, you bring a canned good or two to donate to the New Boston Food Pantry. Weather will determine whether the Easter set will be outside or in studio.

We will be joined this year by local New Boston bakery, the Frosted Cookie. They will have adorable paintable cookies for sale for $5 along with some filled Easter Cookie Eggs that are filled with mini chocolate eggs for $12. The Frosted Cookie will donate a $1 to the food pantry for each item sold and is donating some goodies for some of our prizes as well!

We ask that you practice social distancing while at the event and wear a mask. Masks can be removed when being photographed. If photographing inside, we will limit the number of people/families at a time.

Basics of Block Printing with Monica Rico of Wood Thrush Farm

Friday, March 6th
6:30-9:30 pm

$49

In this workshop, Monica will discuss basic linoleum block carving techniques, tools, materials, and printing methods. Each participant will design and draw their own block, spend time carving it by hand with guidance from the instructor, ink and print, and leave with finished prints and cards to take home. You’ll leave with your finished block as well, so you’ll be able to print from it in the future! Monica will provide information on where to purchase block printing supplies, should you wish to continue practicing after the class. Cost of materials is included in course registration.

Monica Rico is a printmaker, barefoot farmer, and mother of boys at Wood Thrush Farm in Henniker, NH. She makes linocut relief prints on note cards, journals, various sized matted prints, clothing, and textiles. Her work is drawn directly onto linoleum blocks, carved by hand, and individually inked and hand-printed. Each print is an original work and each is slightly different from the next.
