For more than a week, Republican Rep. Kristin Noble repeatedly tried to garner feedback from the governor about one of the most high-profile pieces of legislation this year.

Noble, the chair of a House education committee and one of the prime architects of the universal open enrollment bill, said she had previously enjoyed a strong relationship with the governor’s staff. But by last Tuesday, after the third attempt at outreach went unanswered, the Bedford lawmaker gave up.

“It was very obvious they did not want to communicate,” Noble said in an email to the Concord Monitor.

It was such a pleasure to hang out with this year's Nashua International Sculpture Symposium artists - they gave me coffee and a window into what it's like to spend three weeks turning a 7-ton rock into art. NOTE: Closing ceremonies on Saturday have moved to 27 Will St. (map included with story below).

The first thing visitors notice when they arrive at 3 Pine St. is the noise.

The second is the dust.

Then, gradually, they begin to see it.
