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 from Thursday, October 29th 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.
Stay connected and get a sneak peek at featured items by visiting <a href="https://www.thecraftworkersguild.org," rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">thecraftworkersguild.org,</a> or follow us on Instagram (@craftworkersguild), Twitter/X (@craftworker), and Facebook.

Attention Amherst, Milford, and surrounding NH residents who tried AI and gave up.
If you've opened ChatGPT, typed something in, read what came back, and thought "this sounds nothing like a human being wrote it"... this is for you.
Imagine asking AI to write a thank-you note to your neighbor and it actually sounds like you wrote it. Imagine using it to organize a trip, draft an email, or research a topic in half the time it normally takes, and the results are actually useful. Not robotic. Not weird. Not embarrassing.
That's what happens when you know what to say to it.
Here's where most people are instead: they opened ChatGPT or Google Gemini because everyone said they should. They typed something in. What came back sounded like a greeting card written by a microwave. They tried again. Same thing. They closed the tab and haven't gone back.
Or worse, they haven't tried at all because the whole thing feels like it's moving too fast and they've already missed the window.
You haven't missed anything. You're just missing one piece: how to talk to AI so it gives you what you actually want.
My name is Walter Schnecker. I run C1M Academy in Amherst, NH. We're a New Hampshire Department of Education-licensed school. I've taught over 2,000 students across 20+ years. I hold credentials from Johns Hopkins in neuroscience and specialize in making complicated technology feel simple.
I'm running an in-person workshop called Introduction to Artificial Intelligence. $49. 90 minutes. No jargon. No laptop required. You'll see where AI came from, why the scare tactics in the headlines are manufactured, and how to start using it that same afternoon.
Here's what you won't get: a sales pitch for the first 90 minutes. No pressure. No signing anything. I do also teach a six-week AI course for people who want to go deeper. But committing six weeks to a teacher you've never met is a strange ask. So the workshop is a test drive. Of me. If you like how I teach, the course is there. If you don't, you still leave with 90 minutes of knowledge you'll use that afternoon.
Saturday, November 21st. 10:00 to 11:30 AM. Amherst, NH. $49. 
Seats are limited because it's a real classroom, not a webinar.

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!
