SUMMARY:Holderness Recreation Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Squam Lake Inspired Monoprints\n\nJoin the Squam Lakes Association (SLA) on a pontoon boat tour in the morning to explore the lake\, take reference photos\, and do a plankton haul.  We will then return to shore to examine the plankton haul in the water lab and examine the contents through a microscope\, with a camera\, projected onto a large screen.  Next\, we will have a lunch break\, bring your own.  Resources\, including books\, will be available to peruse during lunch.  At 1:00 we will have an introduction to monoprint making and various tools used for this medium.  You will sketch out your chosen subject matter before using pencils to incise (carve) images into foam with sharp pencils.  We will then ink up our foam with water soluble\, environmentally friendly ink and print on paper and canvases\, one of each\, so participants can leave with two pieces of artwork.  We will have a gallery walk once folks have completed at least one print.  Then\, you are welcome to stay until 3. Registration is $45\, which includes the cost of materials.All ages are welcome. Children must be accompanied by adults.  Space is limited\, so register early!\n\n    \n                                    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n            \n                    \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n    \n        Register now\n\n        \n        \n                \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n	\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\nWhat to bring\n\nParticipants should be prepared for rain or shine.

SUMMARY:Breaking it Down: Compost 101
DESCRIPTION:Squam Lake Inspired Monoprints\n\nJoin the Squam Lakes Association (SLA) on a pontoon boat tour in the morning to explore the lake\, take reference photos\, and do a plankton haul.  We will then return to shore to examine the plankton haul in the water lab and examine the contents through a microscope\, with a camera\, projected onto a large screen.  Next\, we will have a lunch break\, bring your own.  Resources\, including books\, will be available to peruse during lunch.  At 1:00 we will have an introduction to monoprint making and various tools used for this medium.  You will sketch out your chosen subject matter before using pencils to incise (carve) images into foam with sharp pencils.  We will then ink up our foam with water soluble\, environmentally friendly ink and print on paper and canvases\, one of each\, so participants can leave with two pieces of artwork.  We will have a gallery walk once folks have completed at least one print.  Then\, you are welcome to stay until 3. Registration is $45\, which includes the cost of materials.All ages are welcome.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Volunteer: National Trails Day
DESCRIPTION:Squam Lake Inspired Monoprints\n\nJoin the Squam Lakes Association (SLA) on a pontoon boat tour in the morning to explore the lake\, take reference photos\, and do a plankton haul.  We will then return to shore to examine the plankton haul in the water lab and examine the contents through a microscope\, with a camera\, projected onto a large screen.  Next\, we will have a lunch break\, bring your own.  Resources\, including books\, will be available to peruse during lunch.  At 1:00 we will have an introduction to monoprint making and various tools used for this medium.  You will sketch out your chosen subject matter before using pencils to incise (carve) images into foam with sharp pencils.  We will then ink up our foam with water soluble\, environmentally friendly ink and print on paper and canvases\, one of each\, so participants can leave with two pieces of artwork.  We will have a gallery walk once folks have completed at least one print.  Then\, you are welcome to stay until 3. Registration is $45\, which includes the cost of materials.All ages are welcome.

We will then return to shore to examine the plankton haul in the water lab and examine the contents through a microscope\, with a camera\, projected onto a large screen.  Next\, we will have a lunch break\, bring your own.  Resources\, including books\, will be available to peruse during lunch.  At 1:00 we will have an introduction to monoprint making and various tools used for this medium.  You will sketch out your chosen subject matter before using pencils to incise (carve) images into foam with sharp pencils.  We will then ink up our foam with water soluble\, environmentally friendly ink and print on paper and canvases\, one of each\, so participants can leave with two pieces of artwork.  We will have a gallery walk once folks have completed at least one print.  Then\, you are welcome to stay until 3. Registration is $45\, which includes the cost of materials.All ages are welcome.
