Great museum, lovely setting. The only negative is that it's fairly crowded because the exhibit…read morerooms are not large and have a lot of displays. The Rockwell oils are wonderful when you see them in large scale, and the text panels and short bio film give a good sense of how carefully he worked and how he stayed true to his themes of community, inclusion, humor, patriotism. Right now, there are dozens of works by other painters and artists who worked in the same themes, and they are great too. I was on my feet for 4 hours and saw most of the works and took the excellent 30-minute supplemental studio tour. Didn't have time to walk the grounds, which seem lively too.

This certainly was a highlight of this trip to Chesterwood! French's studio is remarkable and so interesting. It contains the actual model of the seated Lincoln that was used to created the marble statue we see in DC today! Many thanks to Laura, our tour guide, who was incredibly knowledgeable and an excellent educator. We learned so much! Highly recommend visiting Chesterwood when in the Berkshires - and be sure to take a tour!

Daniel Chester French was the sculptor of the Lincoln Memorial, and there's a smaller version of the famous sculpture here in his studio. The house he resided in is well-maintained and is quite lovely. The tour guide was informative and friendly. The house tour is worth the admission but the views of the valley puts it over. The garden where the studio is has a nice fountain. I had to leave just before the end of the tour. With the tour, try to have at least a couple of hours so you can get the full feel of the estate.

Chihuly's pieces are instantly recognizable, many with signature complimentary color lips. I found the works by Lino Tagliapietra mesmerizing. The Stromboli and Massai pieces captured my gaze and held it for long enjoyable moments. TIP-a check-in on Yelp netted me a complimentary catalog of Lino's works. I must have been the first because the staff seemed surprised to see the offer. I now have memories of works of art that are a little rich for my budget ( Massai was over $200k)

I was a bit intimidated at first when I walked in with my family since the art pieces are so delicate and the gallery was pretty quiet. Kim greeted us instantly and made us feel so welcomed -- and we set off to explore after learning a bit more about the gallery. The gallery is two-stories high, and you're able to get an AMAZING view of the Chihuly chandelier from the second-floor opening. The art pieces on display were incredible and featured artists like Martin Rosol, David Huchthausen, Lino Tagliapietra, and many others. It was my first time seeing a lot of their art up close and I would recommend coming to this gallery if you're interested in exploring different types of glass art. I wish I had checked in on Yelp for the free catalog! Remember to do that if you visit.

She really helped me understand my Vedic chart, and while she explained it wasn't meant to "predict" my future, I asked her to try to tell me and her reading was SPOT ON! That part was a neat aspect of the readings she's done for me. If you're interested in Vedic astrology, look no further. You're in great hands here. 5 stars for sure!
