Artist Demonstration: House Chickens by Jennifer Diggs

Description

For all of you Jennifer Diggs House Chicken fans, Jennifer will be at the League of NH – Meredith Fine Craft Gallery on Saturday, July 8th, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., to showcase her popular House Chickens and demonstrate the process she uses to make them. Jennifer has been an artist in many mediums throughout her life, but has especially enjoyed working with fabrics. She made her first fake fur “House Chicken” two years ago and the chickens grew to be popular enough for Jennifer to end up on WMUR’s TV show, Chronicle, last year. Jennifer’s flock of REAL chickens gives her a constant source of inspiration for her creations. Along with hearing about Jennifer’s creative process on July 8th, you will meet “Pearl Pecksly”, “Freida McFrillsly”, “Patsy Puffaluff”, and other House Chicken friends who will be here to be adored and purchased. The mission of the League of NH Craftsmen is to encourage, nurture and promote the creation, use and preservation of fine contemporary and traditional craft through the inspiration and education of artists and the broader community. All demonstrations are free and open to the public. If you have any questions, you can call the Gallery at 603-279-7920 or visit us at 279 Daniel Webster Highway in Meredith.
