MEREDITH — The Meredith League of New Hampshire Craftsmen Fine Craft Gallery will hold a whimsical and creative new exhibit, “Best in Shell,” that pays tribute to one of nature’s most enduring and beloved creatures: the turtle. This special showcase features a wide array of handcrafted works inspired by the turtle’s form and symbolism, brought to life through the artistry of juried-in craftspeople.
The turtle, often seen as a symbol of wisdom, longevity, and resilience, is beautifully interpreted in various forms and reminds us of the timeless connection between nature and craft. From playful to practical, the exhibit highlights how artists interpret the turtle motif across different mediums.
Come discover creative pottery and felted wool figurines that capture the turtle’s charm and character. A beautiful mosaic glass tray that shimmers with intricate patterns of turtles in motion. Embroidered turtles adorning bibs and dresses, blending fine stitchwork with natural inspiration. Stuffed animal turtles crafted for both the young and young-at-heart. Functional pottery pieces include mugs, tumblers, small trays, and lamp bases, all decorated with turtle designs.
