Paul is an amazing guy, a great hang, and instantly puts our nerves at ease while pushing us to improve and conquer our fears on the slopes. My wife (who recently started skiing) has improved to a confident blues skier under Paul's instruction! We would recommend Paul to anyone.

The most rewarding day of ski instructions my family has had by far. Paul was amazing. He talked…read morewith us days before the lesson so he had a feel for our needs, and even if he hadn't he was able to quickly diagnose the needs of all our children who were all at very different levels. Wether fine tuning a good skiier or starting from scratch Paul taught our kids so well, and in a way just right for them, and in a way in which they enjoyed (a first after lessons in many other places). Would certainly use Paul and suggest him to others!

Based on…read moresome of these reviews, Andrew's sense of humor may not be for everyone but if you're in the mood to learn really fast, make some amazing glass art in a very short time and have a good ol' joke telling, glass melting hoot of a time, then this is the place for you. He is a complete pro and knows what he's doing, just remember to put your ego on the shelf when you come here because this stuff is super hot and the last thing anyone needs is to walk away with crispy fingers. You will be amazed at what you accomplish and besides dipping his rod in the oven himself, Andrew lets you do all the blowing, tugging and rolling yourself.

On a rainy afternoon, my friend and I googled things to do in Manchester and this popped up. At the…read moretime of this review, they have been open two months. We walked into the most friendly staff member (I'm guessing owner!) who quickly explained how the process worked. They have a wide selection of crafts to do for a variety of price points. The owner was very transparent with my friend and I how prices worked and was incredibly friendly. Once we choose our crafts, she helped us set up and let us go at our own pace. The price point includes everything you need and no time limit! She also was kind enough to show us her book bedazzling class list and explained to us how it worked in case we wanted to come for it! She also explained how her classes are on the website which we later reviewed! I will say, this is a perfect craft for kids with grandparents or for people waiting out weather. I would totally come back the next time I'm in Manchester. The staff member also took time to listen to our feedback and ask for any possible suggestions of crafts as my friend and I are both horse people in Manchester for HITs Vermont. She really wanted to make sure she wasn't going to offend anyone by offering horse shoes to paint. It's really well worth the visit and I hope it's around for a long time. Ps. The best part is no clean up involved, she handled it all!

An absolute blast! Stumbled in and created moss art and an air plant terrarium. We enjoyed…read moreourselves so much my daughter and I came back the following day for the splatter room. The owner and team are phenomenal - warm, welcoming, supportive, helpful, and encouraging. The space is stunning and huge, light and airy. We were even offered a little dessert while my girl made a keychain before we departed. There are so many different crafting options which makes the pricing so fair; a $10 keychain, a $65 moss box - something for everyone. So many spaces to create! There are few third spaces these days and Gathered & Made feels this way. Truly a gem in Manchester for all ages. We're bringing friends and family next time!

The ranger working at the visitor center was very helpful, recommending different areas to go. She even pointed out some areas of the park that have blueberries and raspberries for picking. Turns out that there was quite a lot of berries. We were fairly early in the fall season so there were some good views, but I can imagine that it will be nice @ peak times. We didn't have data in most parts (Verizon & Tmobile) but the visitors center @ the front does have data outside.

Many huge pieces that really grab your attention as well as some very cool smaller pieces that are much more subtle. Artists from all over come here to create their works in an impressive variety of media and are then displayed in many unexpected places on the vast grounds that visitors are invited to explore. There are many nice geocaches hidden all over the property as well and hunting them will provide you with a fantastic tour of both the artwork and the beautiful natural suroundings. Well worth your time to come check it out.

This past summer I had the opportunity to take a writing workshop with Gabrielle Danchick and Alice Smith Duncan. The workshop leaders spent six full days looking at book outlines for three separate genres: Middle school fiction, historical novel, and memoir. A very practical, hands-on approach, with time built in for writing and critique, made this an exceptional experience. In the setting of the SAW environment, we were able to choose different venues to read aloud, make suggestions, and work as a group or individually. I highly recommend this workshop for anyone striving to write prose and complete a published work. Food, coffee, tea, and other offerings are healthy and plentiful. Lodging available on site or in area establishments. Fee of $50/day was very resonable for the amount of attention I got for my writing project.
