Winter Invitational
at the Puddle Dock Restaurant
A new partnership between New Hampshire Art Association (NHAA) and The Puddle Dock Restaurant is bringing local art to one of Portsmouth’s most historic dining spaces.
The partnership began when Puddle Dock owner Ryan Lent, a devoted supporter of the arts, approached NHAA Executive Director Amanda Kidd-Kestler with a vision: to bring the work of regional artists into the restaurant’s inviting space, shaped by its historic character on the grounds of Strawbery Banke Museum. Lent’s ongoing dedication to uplifting local artists, particularly his efforts to integrate art directly into the dining experience, reflects his commitment to strengthening and celebrating the Portsmouth arts and historic community.
