supporting and promoting fine craft, which
has been a catalyst for social, civic, and
economic development throughout the
state. EFC opened in downtown Exeter in
1966 as an outgrowth of the Exeter Home
Industries Group and as a satellite gallery
for the League of New Hampshire
Craftsmen. Throughout its history, EFC’s
mission has remained the same: to preserve
and promote handcrafted arts and
craftspeople in New England so they
