New Hampshire Dealers Have Annual Meeting
RSS 11-18 #758031
MANCHESTER, N.H. â What could be nicer than to have dinner in the now-enclosed former courtyard of the Currier Museum of Art, and then to have free roam of the museum and marvel at its fine collections? Thatâs what Peter Sawyer, vice president of the New Hampshire Antique Dealers Association, thought would make a different and exceptional annual meeting, and so it came about.
He rallied other members of the organization to join him with financial support, and the evening was underwritten by Mark Brock, Joan Brownstein, Cheryl and Paul Scott, Margaret and Ed Weissman, and Scott Bassett.
On a rainy Thursday evening, November 13, about 65 members of the association gathered in Manchester for a brief business meeting, then dinner and time to visit the ânewâ Currier, as it has just reopened with renovated galleries and major expansion. It was a most enjoyable evening, so different from the general run of annual meetings, and a good time was had by all.
Kathy Schoemer, NHADA president, called it, âThe best meeting we have ever had.â Everyone agreed.
