Look around at the walls in this cafe and you will see works by one or more local visual artists. March 2012 will mark the third year since the Black Bean Cafe re-opened in the current 76 Front St. location.
Since then, local artist, Taintor Davis Child has been assisting local illustrators, painters, photographers, printmakers and other fine artists with exhibiting their works in this lively and well lit venue.
Depending on the size of works, one can usually hang 8-12 pieces. Works need to be ready to hang from our moulding hooks. Wire and hanging assistance is provided on the last Sunday or Monday of each month.
For more information, call Taintor, at 603-970-0018.

Hi Taintor,
My daughter, Elizabeth has been performing at the Black Bean Cafe for a few years (voice, keyboard, guitar). Most recently with friend, Trestan (guitar). The gigs are set-up by Chip Harding, a music teacher at Berwick Academy. It’s a small, comfortable place. The art on the walls is always the finishing touch. They played at The Blue Mermaid in Portsmouth last week before both of them headed back to college.
