Arts Spotlight - Stories from the Pandemic: New Leaf Gallery

These are unprecedented times and artists are finding strength in community and creativity. In this account, we hear from Taryn Fisher. You may recognize her name - we’ve featured her before. Taryn ran the League of NH Craftsmen store on Central Square in Keene, which closed down operations this past April. Well, she’s back! After many inspired conversations and the spirit to jump right back in, Taryn has partnered with a local artist to open a very special place - a gallery with an intimate experience and art that is accessible and vibrant.

We’re proud to share the story of New Leaf Gallery and Taryn Fisher, in her own words.

She recently opened a branch of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen. Here is her story, in her own words.
