Kid's at the Fair

 One of the cool things about the League of NH Craftsmen's Fair are the booths for kids. Children of juried members have their own sales booth called "The Next Generation Crafts". The kids sell their crafts and also do demos throughout the week. This year I bought some super soft cotton tie-dyed socks, a pair for me and a pair for my little great niece.

   

My friend Wendy is teaching classes at the "Pottery School" tent all week.


Mark Ragonese works with the kids to build outdoor sculptures of rocks and limbs. It's an exhibit that changes everyday! He also has big a stump out there that the kids can practice hammering nails into and then removing them with the claw end of the hammer. Endless fun.


Today is our last day at the fair. I am not looking forward to tearing down the booth. We have two hours to get it out of the tent so that the next guy can start setting up at 7:00pm. Basically we pack the pots, take apart the booth, move it outside the tent, then load the trailer. I expect we will be back here at the Bow Lake around 11:30.
It's 8:30 am and I am tired just thinking about it!
