:: getting here
[ EDITOR’S NOTE: In March 2016, I moved from my studio’s beloved long-time home — over 26 years spent creating there! — at 125 Main Street (Rivermoor Landing). I’ve held on to that space (just in case I decide to reopen my non-profit gallery someday!) but am now operating — as I’ve always dreamed a freelancer could — from everywhere! I’m leaving these directions up, in case we decide to meet up somewhere in Newmarket, as these directions will get you to our lovely downtown. Contact me to set up a meeting! ]
WHERE IS NEWMARKET?
