Photographer ~ Joerg Meissner
November 3 - 24, 2018

Come meet the man behind the lense on Saturday, November 3rd from 11 am to 1 pm. Light refreshments will be available.

When digital technology revolutionized photography, LightRoom became Joerg's new darkroom. It was an invitation to experiment that he could not resist. and Joerg's passion for photography was re-ignited. The technical and creative aspects of the medium finally started coming together for him. Today, his camera helps him go through life with his eyes wide open.

Behind the viewfinder, Joerg is in the present, sees more deliberately, experiences more intensely, and finds beauty in the world around him. He is drawn to the outdoors, to landscapes, seascapes, textures, patterns, and abstracts. If Joerg's photos evoke an emotion, trigger a memory, or help you see differently, then he has reached his goal.

The show runs through noon on Saturday, November 24, 2018. Sponsored by the Friends of the Lawrence Library.

Ballou Brothers

Since the early seventies the Ballou Brothers Band has been writing,recording and performing their unique brand of New England Rock and Roll throughout the region. With sets of original music and some tasty cover songs you will see a tight and precise performance that can only be built on 40+ years of playing together.

The lineup includes Matt, Deane and Dave Ballou, Gary Young and Gary Blaisdell.

Over the years all members have branched out to perform with other groups and have ventured out solo but have always soldiered on with their brothers in music, The Ballou Brothers Band. Currently releasing their fourth studio album, Barn Burner, the band primarily plays at private functions and fund-raising events. They still occasionally perform around Southern New Hampshire.
