The Craftworkers’ Guild Harvest Craft Shop
Handmade. Local. Heartfelt.
The Craftworkers’ Guild is proud to open its 101st season with the return of our annual Harvest Craft Shop! Join us for the final weekend of the Harvest Shop Thursday, October 8th through Monday, October 12th from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily at the historic Kendall House behind the Bedford Public Library.&nbsp;
This year’s Harvest Shop features the work of 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 Harvest 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 www.thecraftworkersguild.org, or follow us on Instagram (@craftworkersguild), Twitter/X (@craftworker), and Facebook.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States and around the world, and yet it is preventable in the great majority of cases. Eating habits and other lifestyle factors play a key role in determining the risk of clogged arteries, much more so than family history. Pioneering studies have shown that a healthful lifestyle can prevent or delay symptoms, and even reverse moderate to severe heart disease, without surgeries or stents.
Plant-based diets benefit cardiovascular health because they contain no dietary cholesterol, very little saturated fat, and abundant fiber. A plant-based diet can also help improve several risk factors for heart disease, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, atherosclerosis and inflammation.
This class is from the non-profit Physicians Committee’s Food for Life program, and taught by a local physician, Dr Nora E. Hanke. It features a video about research findings published in major medical journals, followed by discussion led by your physician-instructor, food prep demos and the opportunity to taste several plant-based dishes. The class provides an excellent overview of plant-based eating for vascular health. Attendees at recent Monadnock region Food for Life classes have written, “It is totally worth it!”; “Very well done and you get dinner/lunch.”
The fee is $30 per person. Please register by the Thursday before class to ensure your place.

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!
