Meet This Talented Artist At A&E Roastery

A&E Custom Coffee Roastery in Amherst is pleased to feature local artist, Emily Ham, at their March Artist Reception, on March 8 from 6-7 p.m.

Admission is free, and light appetizers, coffee and tea will be served. The café will be open to the public, and café staff will be on hand for those who are tempted to try a more ambitious organic coffee or tea beverage. The A&E Amherst store is located at 135 Route 101A in the Carriage Depot plaza.

"We have always supported the arts community in Southern New Hampshire and Northern Massachusetts," said Emeran Langmaid, owner of A&E Coffee. "Our monthly artist receptions are just one way that we engage the community to connect them with local artists."

From a young age Emily Ham knew that she loved to create things, though she's graduated from the backyard mud and sticks of her childhood, to a wide expanse of other mediums. As a self-taught artist, is continually seeking new ways to expand her knowledge in art.

Whether working with clay and wire, photography, paint and canvas, cloth and thread, or simply paper and glue, her work allows her to evoke emotion and portray the depths of a whole new world. Her work is eclectic, and her inspiration comes from combining the textures and colors, of the natural world.

Ham's work will be on displayed at the café for the entire month of March, but this reception is your chance to meet the artist face-to-face, mingle, and meet other coffee and art lovers.
