Happy Fall from AMFF!
The leaves are changing here in Manchester and we’re welcoming more visitors than ever to the museum. Through the end of October, AMFF remains on its summer schedule, Tuesday – Sunday, 10AM – 4PM. There’s lots to see including a new display dedicated to founding trustee Leigh H. Perkins (1927-2021).
October is also the month for a new journal, and members will receive their latest issue of The American Fly Fisher in the coming weeks. To tide you over until then, we thought you might enjoy revisiting Jerry Karaska’s 2011 article Frank W. Benson: Artist and Angler. Scroll down to read! If you’re not a member, please consider joining today!
