The Nashua International Sculpture Symposium is an annual community event by the Nashua Sculpture Project, designed to elevate the awareness and appreciation of public art in Nashua. Through its unique format, the Symposium allows Nashua residents and visitors the dynamic opportunity to engage directly with guest sculptors from around the world and experience ‘art in the making’. Nashua has the distinction of being the only city in the U.S. which hosts an annual international sculpture symposium. This collaborative, three-week public event celebrates cultural exchange and diversity through creation and sharing. Curiosity and understanding are nurtured via the day-to-day interactions with our visiting artists. 
Since 2008, guest artists from around the world have created 56 different sculptures which are permanently installed throughout the city. These large, stone or metal outdoor sculptures stand in a variety of public spaces including downtown Nashua, schools, parks, neighborhoods, walking trails, and riverfront paths. They incorporate Art as Everyday Living, enhancing the quality of life for New Hampshire citizens daily, and actively contribute to Nashua’s identity as a vibrant arts community. 
Exploring this year’s theme “Gathering Momentum”, our sculptors are Pauline Berger, Germany; Margot Lasalle, France; Anna Multone, Italy; and Sean Williams, US. After working for three weeks in the public eye, these artists will gift their sculptures to the Nashua Sculpture Project to become part of its permanent collection. These new pieces will be celebrated at the Closing event on June 6, 2026. To better inform this year’s theme, the Symposium is intentionally highlighting community connections with children and youth, seeking partnership with interested schools and organizations. 
There are many opportunities for individuals and families to get involved in a meaningful way and to become part of this legacy of sculpture in Nashua. Visit the Picker Artists’ Studios and attend both the Opening Celebration on May 14 at 5:30 PM and the Closing Celebration on June 6 at 1:00 PM, visit the sculptors as they work from May 18 to June 3. Sign up to bring a meal on the website, or volunteer for a more personalized experience. As a non-profit organization, the Nashua Sculpture Project and the Nashua International Sculpture Symposium also seeks like-minded sponsors and donors who want to invest in the cultural, social, and economic value to our community enlivened through public art. 

View all of Nashua’s permanent sculpture installation locations online. Tours of the sculptures are provided upon request.

Nashua Home Design Center

Thinking about adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or an in-law apartment to your property? 
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or in-law apartment can mean a lot of things. A place for aging parents to live independently but close by. A landing pad for an adult child. A future rental. A flexible space that adapts as life does. Whatever's drawing you to the idea, the questions tend to be the same: Is it allowed where I live? How much will it cost? Where would it even go? And how do I make sure it actually works?
Join us in the showrooms of the <a href="https://www.nashuahomedesigncenter.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Nashua Home Design Center</a> for a relaxed, conversational morning with David Bryan, President &amp; CEO, and Gates Bryan, Design Specialist, of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blackdogbuilders.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Blackdog Design/Build/Remodel</a>. Between them, they've helped countless New Hampshire and Massachusetts families think through these exact decisions, and they'll share what works, what doesn't, and what to think about before you start.What We’ll Cover:
<ul><li>What an ADU actually is, and what your town will (and won't) allow, between location, access, size, and utilities</li><li>The design constraints worth knowing about early</li><li>How to make an ADU feel like a natural extension of your home, not an addition tacked on</li><li>The family side of the conversation: finances, life changes, and how today's design should anticipate tomorrow's needs</li><li>Permitting in southern New Hampshire, and how the rules vary town to town</li><li>What it really takes to generate rental income from an ADU</li><li>The factors that genuinely move the needle on construction costs</li><li>How to choose the right people to work with</li><li>Smart, practical kitchen and bath design for smaller footprints</li></ul>
Come with questions. Leave with clarity, and a much better sense of what's possible on your own property!
Space is limited to 20 guests, so we keep things small&nbsp;enough for real conversation.

Apis Law | Personal Injury Attorney

Attorney Keith F. Diaz founded Apis Law, PLLC to fight for injured people across New Hampshire. With 22 years of legal experience, Attorney Diaz represents individuals and families who suffer injuries due to someone else's negligence — and he works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless he wins your case.

We also take on employment law matters including wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, and sexual harassment. Attorney Diaz holds admission to practice in the State of New Hampshire (Bar No. 15831), the U.S. District Court for the District of New Hampshire, and the First Circuit Court of Appeals.

From two offices in Goffstown and Bedford, Apis Law serves clients throughout southern New Hampshire including Concord, Manchester, Nashua, Amherst, Hooksett, and surrounding communities. When you get hurt, the insurance company assigns a team to minimize your payout. Apis Law fights back. Call (603) 785-1013 for a free consultation.
