We host events that give our members an opportunity to show and sell their work, notably the annual Show on Veterans’ Day weekend in conjunction with NH Open Doors, and at the town’s Spring Gala in mid-May. We also participate in events that support other town organizations, to celebrate the presence of art and fine craft in the community.
What is the purpose of the Mont Vernon Artisans?
Our Mission is to share experiences and information with respect to our lives as artists and artisans, and to make Mont Vernon a destination for artists, students, and collectors, built on a reputation of fine craftsmanship and generosity of spirit.
Why and when do we meet?
Our meetings are designed to carry out the primary mission of the MVA, as we listen to each other‛s experiences, learn about new opportunities and events, share practical information, and plan ways of bringing art into the community.
We welcome you!
