Hancock Shaker Village, Sept. 2024

By Dave Read, Lenox, MA, Sept. 5, 2024 visit – Hancock Shaker Village stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Tanglewood in the first rank of places that must be visited on a rare trip to the Berkshires, and no less than annually if you live within a couple hour’s drive. Here’s hoping these casual phonesnaps pique your curiosity enough to make a visit.

There are docents and curators who blend right in; ask a question of two and you will learn marvelous things about the Shakers and their mode of living. A few years ago, the place hosted a fiddler’s convention – a perfect fit.
