Before the Weeks Act was law, it was an idea. The arts express ideas with particular beauty, power and clarity. The art of the White Mountains powerfully broadcast important ideas of nature, grandeur, conservation and public duty; art no less than politics, science, or religion protected our forests. During the Weeks Centennial year, northern New Hampshire explored the meaning and impact of the Weeks Act through a celebration of the power of the arts to delight, teach and inspire us. “Eight Days of Weeks,” a White Mountains Cultural Festival, took place on the eight weekend days of August, and Weeks-related cultural events were held all around the region throughout the year. Arts presenters, libraries, museums and historical societies, conservation and environmental organizations, creative and hospitality businesses, schools, camps, youth groups and community clubs, as well as artists and artist groups participated in this collaborative effort, coordinated by the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire.
