Fruitlands Museums (Visit this link)
Our 210-acre landscape includes the site of the 1843 Fruitlands experiment led by Bronson Alcott, the first Shaker Museum in the world, a Native American museum, a fine art gallery of Hudson River landscapes, 19th century portraits, changing exhibits, and trails through woodlands and meadows. Our collections include more than 6,000 objects and six historic structures. The collections, landscape and experiences interpret the history and culture of Native people, colonial farmers, 19th century utopians, Shakers, artists and others whose identity, values and sense of place are rooted in New England.
