Welcome to the National Bank of Middlebury

Four local artists are joining forces using the wooden tops of picnic baskets as their canvases. The project is in support of the Henry Sheldon Museum and the baskets filled with goodies will be raffled off July 2 at the upcoming Pops and Fireworks extavaganza.

On Wednesday, June 27 at noon the Sheldon Museum will present an illustrated talk, “A Life Among Birds: Carved and Flying.” Gary Starr a world-class self-taught carver will discuss his childhood amidst a premier decoy collection, his introduction to carving, his change of careers and his birding passion shared also by his wife Kathy. The talk is free with museum admission.

This year’s Gran Fondo premier cycling event will see the return of the LAMB, the original 4 gap course. The course will traverse Appalachian Gap (west to east), Lincoln Gap (east to west), Brandon Gap (west to east) and Middlebury Gap (east to west).
