The Craftworkers’ Guild Hearth and Home Shop
Handmade. Local. Heartfelt.
The Craftworkers’ Guild is proud to continue its 101st season with the return of our annual Hearth and Home Shop, open now through Sunday, November 22nd. Join us at the historic Kendall House, located behind the Bedford Library, Thursday through Sunday each week, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
This year’s Hearth and Home Shop features hundreds of items from nearly 50 local Guild member artisans and craftspeople, showcasing a rich variety of handmade goods — from timeless New England traditions to fresh, modern designs.
“As we open this year’s Hearth and Home Shop, we’re thrilled to highlight what lies at the very core of our mission: work that is handmade, local and deeply heartfelt,” says Carol Davis, President of The Craftworkers’ Guild. “Every piece in the shop tells a story of dedicated local artistry, offering our community a personal connection to the craft that simply can’t be replicated.”
Shoppers will find a curated selection of locally made, juried crafts, with something for everyone — from stocking stuffers to large art pieces, including seasonal décor, photography, fine art and prints, cards, woodworking, textiles, pottery, fiber arts, sewn and knitted items, candles, jewelry, glass, and more. Many items are one-of-a-kind, perfect for gifts or treating yourself.
Proceeds help support the Guild’s ongoing arts education initiatives in the community, continuing our mission to inspire creativity for the next generation of artists and makers.

New York City comes to New Hampshire this November when Nona’s Supper Club, a hilarious, heartfelt, and highly interactive new musical, makes its New Hampshire debut at the historic Flying Monkey Movie House &amp; Performance Center in Plymouth.
With only three performances - Saturday, November 21 at 2 PM and 7 PM, and Sunday, November 22 at 2 PM audiences are invited to step into the world of the Abalafia family and become part of the action as their story unfolds.
A Family. A Legacy. A Musical. You’re Invited.
Nona’s Supper Club is a comedic, campy new musical about a New York City family-owned restaurant on the brink of disaster. At the center of the story is Twyla, a determined grandchild who is trying to convince their grandmother, Millie “Nona” Abalafia, to retire and save the family business. But what begins as a seemingly straightforward plan quickly becomes complicated by long-buried secrets, romantic entanglements, family rivalries, and one very questionable chef.
The audience are invited guests at the family’s reopening celebration, interacting directly with the characters and becoming part of the evening as the family’s carefully constructed plans begin to unravel.
Rather than simply watching from the sidelines, audience members have opportunities to engage with the characters and influence the energy of the evening. The result is a lively, spontaneous theatrical experience where every performance has the potential to be a little different.
Featuring an electrifying original score ranging from infectious pop anthems to show-stopping ballads, Nona’s Supper Club is a joyous and heartfelt musical about family, identity, love, memory, and how far we’ll go to save the people — and the places — we call home.
“Heartfelt, funny, immersive, and delicious—the kind of experience that reminds you why live theatre (and family dinners) matter. We went expecting a fun evening and left feeling like family.”— Nicole Steinthal, NS Lifestyles
“A hilarious and poignant multigenerational tale of love, legacy, and letting go.” 
— New York Weekly Times
From New York City to New Hampshire
After its development and performances Off Broadway and Off Off Broadway in New York City, Nona’s Supper Club now heads north for a special limited engagement at one of New Hampshire’s most beloved historic performance spaces!

Bedford Women’s Club Festival of Trees and Holiday Market
The Bedford Women’s Club Festival of Trees and Holiday Market has become a perennial “must do” community event in Bedford. This year, the magic of our festival will again be located at the Bedford Presbyterian Church. Dozens of fully decorated trees with fun themes will be on display and available to win in the raffle, along with holiday merchandise from local vendors. More than 500 visitors attended the festival last year. 
The Festival of Trees will be open to the public on Friday, November 20, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, November 21, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free. Raffle tickets will be on sale at the door for the chance to win a fully decorated tree. Anyone who donates canned or boxed food items for the Bedford Food Pantry will receive a free raffle ticket. Santa will listen to wishes and pose for you to take photos. There will also be a free craft area for children, door prizes, and more. 
The Holiday Market will be integrated into the Festival with a few local merchants blended in with the tree displays. Vendors include Carly’s Cakes, Herb and Vine, Susanna Jones Woodworking, Bedford Fields, and weaver Kate Kilgus. The public will be able to get a jump on holiday shopping while strolling around viewing interesting and beautiful trees.
Local Businesses and civic groups have been invited to sponsor a tree by donating directly to the BWC. Our members have selected a theme for each sponsored tree and will decorate it accordingly. Platinum sponsors for this year’s event are The Bedford Men’s Club, Bedford Rotary, NH Planning Association, Bedford Lion’s Club, and NH Water Remediation. Gold sponsors and silver sponsors are Jonathan's Jewelers, Prostate Cancer Coalition, Ledyard Bank, Sullivan Framing, and The Bedford Town Council. For civic groups, and individuals or businesses who wish to demonstrate their creative side, BWC welcomes decorated trees. This year we have the Bedford Garden Club, Inner Athlete, Roz Lockwood Design, Martin School of Dance, White Willow Spa, New England Mobile Fit Clinic, and En Gannim Landscaping contributing their own fully decorated trees.
The Bedford Women’s Club is pleased to bring back the Festival of Trees and Holiday Market for the fifth consecutive year. It is an opportunity for business, nonprofits, and the general public to come together for fun and entertainment while raising funds to give back to our community.
