The glaze kiln is cooling down and I have some pics of new low-fire work to take and post, coming very soon... But here's the list for last week:
1. Lunenburg Santa Claus Parade - this was a very sweet afternoon parade on last Saturday full of creative floats and community spirit, advertised by the Board of Trade as the 'biggest small town parade'.
2. Lunenburg Christmas Tree Lighting - another beautiful event in the evening after the parade with the town gathering around the bandstand to sing carols, listen to a couple passages from the bible, watch a pilgrimage with live donkey and watch as around 100 trees were lit. It was nice to be in a town that still embraces the word "Christmas"; not to the exclusion of other traditions, but in celebration of this one.
3. Local pottery! tis the season and again there are so many great home studio sales happening. Toni Losey's sale in Dartmouth was last weekend though she has work available by appointment. Seastar Pottery, Dragonfire Pottery and Crescent Clay have studio sales on this coming weekend, among other group craft sales going on.
4. Knot Pub in Lunenburg - went here between the parade and lighting, really reasonably priced good food and a great atmosphere
5. Christmas on Lincoln Street in Lunenburg - a lot of shops will be open til 8 on the first three fridays in December
