New England College in Henniker, New Hampshire commissed Seabrook, New Hampshire artist Don Felix to make this banner weathervane with the letters N E C. You can see his weathervanes at the League of
New Hampshire Craftsmen fairs every August at Mount Sunapee. Felix’s weathervane is mounted on the cupola
above the Simon Center, 98 Bridge Street, Henniker, New Hampshire. This
building was constructed in 1994, and it houses a campus pub, theater, meeting
rooms, bookstore, and a student center.
A duplicate weathervane was made by Don Felix for the John
Lyons Center at New England College in 2016. This building is an academic
building with 10 classrooms and faculty offices. These images are of the weathervane at the
John Lyons Center on Depot Hill Road in Henniker. It was designed to match other campus
buildings, like the Simon Center, but it high tech on the inside. There is a two story open space, and the Lyons
Center was built to LEED standards.
The New England College weathervane is used as their brand
image. It is featured on the home page
of their website, marketing ads and the academic catalog.
