A Creative Haven

It’s back to school time and if you need a refresher course in creativity, you should consider the Squam Art Workshops in New Hampshire. You’ll find a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore a range of mediums for all levels of expertise from novice to professional. . There are 22 different classes that include: painting, printmaking, journaling, writing, photography, and some classes that combine several of those elements into one workshop. In addition, the region surrounding Squam Lake offers a host of activities including swimming, hiking, and boating. There are also numerous antique shops, second-hand stores, and general stores, as well as restaurants and picturesque towns, to explore. This year some of the very talented instructors will include Judy Wise (skirt! July cover artist), Penelope Dullaghan (skirt! March cover artist), Andrea Scher of Superhero Designs and other Super Creative artists and writers. September 10-14 (registration is open until the end of August).
