Town NewsEvents CalendarAmherst MOMS Club

The Amherst MOMS Club holds a monthly business meeting open to residents every third Tuesday at The First Baptist Church, 25 1/2 Middle Street in the Town of Amherst. The International MOMS Club is a non-profit organization supporting moms who are home with their children. Members can be stay-at-home, work-at-home, or work part-time outside the home, but most activities take place during the weekday to support these moms without taking away from family time in the evenings and weekends. The exception to this rule is MOMS Night Out, a once-a-month chance for moms to get out and have some me-time with friends. Other ac-tivities include play dates, outings, get-togethers, and community service projects. For more information please e mail amherstmomsclubnh@gmail.com

Jazz First Concert At Amherst Town Library

Patterns in Art and Language: Tessellations, Syntax, Arabesque & Rhyme

AMHERST - As part of the Am-herst Town Library’s October adult programming called Zentangle Zoctoberfest, Nancy Baker presents a fascinating two-part series, “Pat-terns in Art and Language: Tessella-tions, Syntax, Arabesque & Rhyme,” on Wednesday, October 19th and Wednesday, October 26th at 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. in the Johnson Meet-ing Room. The English philosopher and mathematician Alfred North Whitehead said, “Art is the impos-ing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recog-nition of the pattern.” In this two-part series (art on October 19th

and language on October 26th) we will look at some of the patterns we enjoy in art and language. We will explore all kinds of patterning, from the symmetry and the impos-sible of M.C. Escher, to the scroll-ing decoration of Islamic art, to the bold dynamics of abstract expres-sionism, to color field painting. We will share ideas about the struc-tures of language that let us weave patterns in poetry and prose, and stretch ourselves in the joy of word games which let us use our alphabet to perceive the word patterns that enrich and connect us. The format is interactive and interdisciplinary.

No previous study of art history or literature is expected, and all mate-rials are provided. You are welcome to attend one or both of the pro-gram sessions offered.

Presenter Nancy Baker, one of the Founding Faculty at Souhegan High School, was runner up as New Hampshire Teacher of the Year in 2004. During her time at the school, Nancy taught Mythology, History of Ideas, Philosophy, Ancient Histo-ry and Latin. A Classical Languag-es major at Harpur College, SUNY at Binghamton, Nancy continued graduate work in Egyptology at Brown University. She also worked

in the Research Department at Co-lonial Williamsburg, was Director of Research at the Historic Annapo-lis Foundation, and is the author of several articles on early Annapolis, Maryland, silversmiths in the 18th century, and colonial ship chan-dlery.

The event is free and open to the public. You can register by calling 673-2288, emailing library@am-herst.lib.nh.us or by visiting our website at www.amherst.lib.nh.us and registering online by selecting “Calendar of Events.”
