Makers on the Mount
Two New Hampshire Icons. One Unforgettable Voyage.

This Memorial Day Weekend, we invite you to join us in celebrating the local spirit of our artisan community. We’ve partnered with the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen to transform the decks of the M/S Mount Washington into a floating studio.
Just as the M/S Mount Washington has been a symbol of New Hampshire’s enduring spirit for generations, the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen has spent a century protecting and promoting the standards of fine craft. And just like the meticulous maintenance of our historic vessel, League artists use time-honored techniques to create pieces that last a lifetime.
This isn’t just a cruise; it’s an opportunity to experience the lake like never before, surrounded by the creators who keep our local traditions alive.
What’s on the Water?

Live Pop-Up Demonstrations: Watch the masters at work. From pottery to jewelry making, see the process behind the pieces.
The Maker’s Market: Browse and buy unique, handmade goods directly from League members. Take home a piece of New Hampshire heritage.
The Beer Garden: Sip on a curated selection of New Hampshire’s finest craft brews while you enjoy the mountain views
