THE CONCORD

Concord Young Professionals Network (CYPN) introduces you to the “Young Professional of the Month,” Alexandra Brewer. Each month, the CYPN Steering Committee recommends an individual in the community it thinks readers would enjoy getting to know better.

How old are you? 29.

Where do you live?

Manchester.

Where do you currently work? Cleveland, Waters and Bass, P.A. as an Associate Attorney.

Tell us a little bit about what you do. I assist clients in a wide variety of corporate, real estate, zoning, land use, operational and litigation matters, and for-profit and non-profit formations. I volunteer as a mentor for the Rutman Leadership Fellows Program at the University of New Hampshire and am an Ambassador for CYPN. I am also involved with various committees for the New Hampshire Bar Association and New Hampshire Women’s Bar Association.

What’s your favorite part of your work day? I enjoy many parts of my work day, but especially those parts where I have the opportunity to collaborate with my colleagues.

What is something you would like to see added or brought to Concord? Always more small businesses with good people. There is no such thing as too many!

What’s your favorite restaurant in Concord? It has to be Angelina’s, but I am making my way to try them all!

Where did you go to school? I grew up in Meredith, so I went to InterLakes, then the University of New Hampshire for my undergraduate studies

where I studied Business relationships. I would also Administration at the Peter like to travel more.

and decided that CYPN was a program that I wanted to be involved in. It is too easy to get “stuck” meeting people only in your specific industry, and CYPN has allowed me to expand outside my industry network and get to know the people behind so many of the great businesses and organizations the Greater Concord Area has to offer. As a CYPN Ambassador, I hope to bring that same connectivity to new members and event attendees. Networking events can be intimidating, and having been intimidated

myself, I would like to help bridge that gap for others.

CYPN is hosting two events in August! Join us at Contoocook River Company for a paddle down the river starting at 9 a.m. on Saturday, August 10. We’ll be joined by Five Rivers Conservation Trust. And all are invited to CYPN’s monthly networking event at the Holiday Inn on Wednesday, August 21 from 5:30-7 p.m.

Make new friends in a fun, casual atmosphere. Learn more and sign up for all CYPN events at concordnhchamber.com.

Wander through 20 acres of breathtaking sunflowers, the largest sunflower field in New Hampshire, at Sunfox Farm’s 6th Annual Sunflower Festival from August 10 to 18 in Concord.

At Sunfox Farm, we grow sunflowers not only for the high-quality cooking oil we cold press from their seeds but also to celebrate their natural beauty with the public. Our festival features a vibrant lineup of daily live music from talented local musicians, over 30 local artisan vendors, and a delightful array of food trucks.

We aim to create a familyfriendly atmosphere with engaging yard games, whimsical body art, and unique photography props nestled among the sunflowers.

Don’t miss the chance to see our vintage 1930s Model AA truck and impressive combine harvester up close. For those looking to take a piece of the festival home, we offer a “cut-your-own” sunflower experience.

A highlight of our festival is Chef Amber’s Sunflower Dinners. These exclusive 7course fine dining experiences, set amidst the blooming sunflowers, are not to be missed.

The upcoming exhibition at Two Villages Art Society (TVAS) in Hopkinton features the work of Campton artist Lizzy Berube. The exhibition “Somewhere to Remember” opens Saturday, Aug. 10, at the gallery at 846 Main Street in the village of Contoocook. The show opens with a 12 to 2 p.m. reception that is free and open to the public and runs

through Sept. 7.

Lizzy Berube paints large seasonal landscapes in acrylic and oil, inspired by places in New England where she has spent time hiking in the mountains or meandering on coastal beaches. Berube has lived in the White Mountains since 2017 and spends as much time as possible outdoors year-round.

The seasonal life cycles of nature are her muse and palette, the artist says. “Each painting comes from a deep, resonating memory of a different moment and what I felt when I was in that place.” She hopes that when people look at her paintings they will be drawn into the scene and experience joy and excitement or feel a sense of serenity and peace.

A self-taught artist, Berube says her main influences are her family. “I grew up with art and culture. I was a ballet dancer and we had a lot of music in our home. My mother took us to art museums and exposed us to a wide variety of art.”

“Somewhere to Remember” is Berube’s first solo exhibition. Gallery hours are Thursday through Sunday from 12 to 4 p.m.

‘Constructs’ at the Gallery Family friendly service at a fair price PILLAR Gallery + Projects (Concord, NH) fifth exhibition, CONSTRUCTS, explores distinct visual languages in geometric abstraction and sculptural form.

Artists include Eric Katzman, Trevor Toney, Jenny McGee Dougherty, Damion Silver, and Don Williams.

Each artist has a unique vocabulary and grammar centered around defined shape and form, from precisely crafted minimalism to exploratory expression. The exhibition focuses heavily on composition and design, including functional ceramics, sculpture, shapedriven abstract paintings and collage.

Damion Silver is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans printmaking, assemblage & sculpture.

Silver’s practice focuses on repeated forms, and ideas of addition and subtraction.

Linear bent-wood sculptures echo similar structures in the artists’ relief prints.

Don Williams is a NHbased ceramicist and sculptor. The artist works with clay, assembling elements to create engaging new forms that reference ar-

chitecture, landscape, manufactured parts and artifacts.

The carefully constructed ceramic works are richly textured and glazed, alluding to rust, corrugation, steel, concrete, and aluminum.

book of the week (2024, 502 pages, Genre: Horror)

If you need a great summer read that isn’t a beachthemed romance or thriller, you should probably consider reading Stephen King’s newest, much-anticipated collection of short stories, You Like It Darker.

Many of these stories take place in King’s second home state of Florida, lending a ‘tropical horror” feel. If that wasn’t a thing before, it is now.

The most notable of the stories has to be “Rattlesnakes,” a sequel to Cujo set in the modern day, decades after the horrific events of the novel.

The father from Cujo, Vic Trenton, has somehow survived the gruesome death of his young son Tad, only to en-

dure the passing of his wife Donna from cancer. As a widower, he now lives in Rattlesnake Key, Florida in a friend’s mansion. A series of unsettling encounters with a

peculiar elderly neighbor and strange unexplainable events indicate to Vic that the horrors that have haunted his life are far from over.
