Stories from the Granite State-- the rocks are coming to Rochester!

If you are from the seacoast area, like myself, you may remember the beautiful "shoe art" walking tour in downtown Rochester. Well, the non-profit group Art Esprit is at it again, bringing art to the Rochester community with the upcoming public art exibition, "If Rocks Could Talk: Stories from the Granite State". Granite State is seeking to support them in their efforts and looking forward to a wonderful spring of good walking tour weather in downtown Rochester! The rocks themselves are from natural settings around New Hampshire and they will be displayed through the work of local artists. Our Rochester staff is so thrilled to be a part of this community effort and we'll be looking for plenty of seacoast student support at the Rock Project events this spring. Be sure to look for our finished rock that is already in progress below, which will feature art from NH farms. Alumna Paul Sprague, who is husband to Alicia Sprague in our Rochester Center has composed a beautiful poem about it as well which will be read on the opening day of our new location in Rochester.
