On the Beach, a movie about a group of Australians attempting to come to terms with the imminent total destruction of life after a global nuclear war, was in theatres. Plans were afoot to install a bomb shelter in the basement of Burling Library.

A collection is a group of objects that seem to belong together. What is a collector? A collector is a person who gathers groups of objects together to create a collection. Some collections are public and other collections are private. Private collections belong to just one person. Public collections, are available to everyone. Peter Pincus Quatrefoil Columns, 2018, Colored porcelain and gold luster The title of this show is New Acquisitions from Julianne and David Armstrong. What is an Acquisition? An acquisition is an object that has been purchased or obtained. The exhibition title lets you know that each of the works displayed in this exhibition were “acquired” from Julianne and David Armstrong, and they donated these artworks from their private collection, to the museum’s collection. Bennett Bean Triple Vessel, C. 2010 Earthenware Who are David and Julianne Armstrong? David and Julianne Armstrong are the founders of the American Museum of Ceramic Art. That means they are the people who started this museum. What types of art do Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong collect? The Armstrongs enjoy ceramic arts of all kinds. They collect functional work and sculptural work, contemporary, modern and pre-modern. Why did David and Julianne Armstrong want to start a Ceramics Museum? When Mr. Armstrong was in school, he took a ceramics class taught by an artist named Paul Soldner (right) and fell in love with ceramic art. This encouraged him to start collecting ceramic objects with his wife, Julianne Armstrong.

DAVID BOWERS, 1995 * * * Updated by GENE DENU, 2021 Introduction The following is a listing of town of Wolfeboro streets, geographical features, developments, business and commercial blocks with multiple tenants, graveyards, parks, monuments, and place names from the earliest days to the present. This is the most ambitious gazetteer of Wolfeboro ever attempted. Not included are schools, school buildings, or churches, which are treated in other sections of Volume II. Wolfeboro has its share of interesting names including Raccoonborough, Goose Corner, Upper Shoe Island, Dead Horse Hill, Frogg Crossing, Bellywhack, Coffin Shore, Laundry Hill, Skunk’s Misery, Dishwater Pond, and Stamp Act Island. Early Nomenclature In the early days, roads were often described by where they went, rather than by specific names. Examples: “Road leading from Frost Corner to Brookfield.”1 “Road leading by David Piper’s house to the Tuftonborough line.”2 “Voted to discontinue the road leading from the road near where Moses Thompson, Jr., now lives to where the Pickering factory lately stood.”3 In the absence of specific names, such roads are not listed in Wolfeboro Place Names.
