The current exhibit at The Studio is "Just Like Us Only Not" photographer Evelyn Lamprey's intimate look at Graceland, Elvis Presley's legendary home. Take a step back in time and see what makes Graceland both "Just like us" in it's scale and "only not" in some of its over-the-top decor. The images will be on display in the gallery through September. Come to the opening reception on September 12th beginning at 6 and listen to songs that Elvis might have listened to, and see the work of master barber Bree Henderson from
Polished and Proper Barbershop and Shave Parlor, who is bringing Elvis-ishes to Downtown for the evening! For a limited time, you can indulge in a dessert special at
Local Eatery, a peanut butter and banana Monte Cristo finished with homemade praline ice cream, local honey and candied local bacon - a delicious tribute to The King!
On Friday the 13th, The Studio is hosting a Trunk Show by Grace Napoleon of
Folk Couture. For one day only, Grace's fun and funky up-cycled dresses and men's shirts will be available for you to try on and find the perfect one for your closet. Grace will be in Laconia from 2 pm until 7 pm Friday, then packs up to go to the
Art Fair at the Squam Art Workshops in Holderness for Saturday night. She's offered to come back (!) in the winter to teach us how to make our own Folk Couture in a workshop; let me know if you might be interested.
On Saturday, September 14th, downtown Laconia is the home of the inaugural
New Hampshire Coffee Festival. This afternoon event will bring live music, games, crafts and of course coffee to downtown from 1-5 pm. Main Street will be lined with vendors and displays, tasty food and something for everyone - come downtown and experience coffee like never before!
The Studio will have a tent on Main Street for the day, with Coffee Festival exclusive jewelry and soap, and other goodies. As always, let me know if you have any questions, and I'll see you at The Studio: A little out of the way, a lot out of the ordinary!
