1 Book 1 Valley’s second event will be at the Conway Public Library on Monday, September 23 at 6 pm. Kevin Gardner, author of The Granite Kiss: Traditions and Techniques of Building New England Stone Walls, will give an informal talk about the history, technique, and aesthetics of stone wall building, all while building a sample miniature tabletop stone wall.
All are welcome, this event is free and open to the public. Please come!
Join us on Sunday, September 22 at 2 pm at the Lutheran Church of the Nativity for Chartres Cathedral: Philosophy and Theology as Art, a NH Humanities Council program presented by Ty Perry.
Perry will lead a discovery tour of the philosophical and theological thought behind cathedral art, in particular, stained glass windows and sculpture. Avoiding the normal art historical approach (the development of styles over time) and avoiding critical evaluations of artistic style or merit, this is an inquiry into the “why” of windows and sculpture of medieval cathedrals, a search for the meaning, sometimes on the surface, sometimes hidden.
This program is free and open to the public. Refreshments, too.
