During our League of NH Craftsmen’s Open Studio Tour last weekend, Matt Brown and I bumped into the esteemed Dr. Janine Weins, whom we both know through tai chi classes at Long Wind Farm, in East Thetford, New Hampshire.
Janine is also the long-time host of talk radio’s “Twin State Journal,” which airs daily 6-7 pm on FM 99.7 & AM 1490 here in the Upper Valley, and she kindly invited Matt & I to join her to talk about our work and upcoming fine craft events in the area.
Twin State Journal is a live interview program that originates from WNTK’s Talk Radio studios in Lebanon, New Hampshire. The mission of Twin State Journal is to entertain the listeners while introducing them to the people, places, businesses and events that make the WNTK and WUVR listening area a special place in which to live and work.
Dr. Janine Weins joined WNTK in March of 1991 and for more than a decade she was the sole host of Twin State Journal. She has interviewed more than two thousand guests including First Lady Barbara Bush, President Clinton, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, Astronaut Jay Buckey, Captain Kangaroo Bob Keeshan, nationally acclaimed herbalist Happy Griffiths and Glass Blower Simon Pearce.
I am pleased and humbled to join the ranks of Janine Weins‘ radio guests tomorrow night:
Wednesday, November 15, 2007, live from 6-7 pm.
You can also listen live online anytime…
And if you do catch it, be sure to let me know… this is my first radio interview!
This weekend, November 17 & 18th, I return to Westport, Connecticut for the Young Woman’s League Creative Arts Festival for the 3rd year running.
One of the premier juried craft shows in the country, the Festival offers stunning, hand-crafted items by a wide variety of talented artisans. There’s something for everyone on your holiday list, from toys to decorative home items, jewelry, clothing, and even specialty food items.
Don’t worry about bringing the kids, they’ll have fun at the Westport Historical Society’s kids corner themed “Arts and Crafts: Old and New.”
The Creative Arts Festival (CAF) is sponsored by the Westport Young Woman’s League, a non profit organization dedicated to helping those in need in our community and beyond while providing its members an opportunity for camaraderie and personal growth through its many educational and fun special interest activities.
This year, I will donate one of my freehand embroidered Heirloom Handknit Hats to the Creative Arts Festival Raffle, the proceeds of which help the WYWL with charitable works in the local community throughout the year.
Kids 12 & Under: FREE
For more information on shuttle buses, maps and discounts visit the WYWL website or call (203)-222-1388.
If you make it to Westport, Connecticut, this weekend, be sure to come visit me at the Staples High School Gym, booth #163.
While you are there, please check out the work of my fellow League of New Hampshire Craftsmen artists, printmaker Matt Brown, and polymer clay/fiber artist Luann Udell, both of whom I encouraged to join this Festival…
I want them to really enjoy it, so come on by and say hello. It would be so nice to see you there!
