Smoky Quartz: Upcoming Events
UPDATE 9/20/24:
The Monadnock Writers’ Group meeting scheduled for Saturday, September, 21st, is CANCELLED.
Unfortunately, one of the artists in residence at MacDowell has tested positive for COVID. Per MacDowell’s protocol, readings would have to take place outdoors. Given the weather forecast, the Monadnock Writers’ Group Board decided to cancel the event. They hope to meet at MacDowell another time this year.
