More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You settle into a worktable that faces the Riverwalk; outside, the Fall River pushes past the town with a steady, insistent rhythm while a strip of light from a nearby storefront pools across the floor. Inside, small jars of vibrant alcohol ink wait like bottled auroras. In an hour you'll coax color into glass, learn a few controlled spills and blow techniques, and assemble a battery-lit frame that makes pigment hum.
