BARNEY BELLINGER
Sampson Bog Studio
Wednesday,
November 15 at 6:30pm

Co-hosted with COUNTRY LIVING

Founded by furniture artist Barney Bellinger, Sampson Bog Studio is more than a rustic furniture manufacturer. It is an art studio where bark, twigs and natural materials are gathered into the hands of an individual inspired by the romance and mystery of logging trails, wildlife refuges, fly fishing sites, and the Great Camps of the Adirondacks. Mr. Bellinger’s understanding of various woods is part book-learned and part inherited wisdom from a grandfather who worked in lumber camps in the early 1900s and spent cherished time in later years sharing secrets of the woods. Furniture created by Mr. Bellinger has been exhibited at the National Museum of Wildlife Art, the Adirondack Museum, and the Ralph Kylloe Gallery, and appears in the permanent collections of the Orvis Company and the Smithsonian Institution.
