Embellish a mini sheep to make into a pin to take home for the free Make & Take, sign up for the gift basket raffle from Spriggs Shoppe, and enjoy some light refreshments while browsing Sprigg’s Shoppe’s 25% off sale. From 1-3 pm, WOOL fiber artist Lisa Almeida will be offering a tapestry weaving demonstration and selling her small affordable artworks. Twiggs Gallery will launch BAAcawen’s Flashy Flock Community Art Project for Old Home Week. Under the Twiggs Gallery tent, help decorate a Flashy Flock “Black Sheep” with fun and fancy Zentangle patterns. Thirty reserved sheep cut-outs will be displayed on the lawn for pick-up by Boscawen residents to take home and embellish. Expect to see a “flash mob” of artsy sheep displayed all around town during Boscawen’s Old Home Week late in August.
