Norman Rockwell's art, whether it is
Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas or
The Four Freedoms, is a treasured part
of American culture. Embodying tolerance,
kindness, and humor, the works of Norman
Rockwell are a priceless contribution to the
world. Much of his work can be viewed at the
Norman Rockwell Museum, located in
Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
The
museum was founded in 1969 with the help of
Norman and Molly Rockwell, and is the site
of the largest collection of Norman
Rockwell's art. The museum offers tours as
well as exhibits including photographs,
letters, and original sketches. Included
with the paintings and drawings are personal
calendars and letters detailing the artist's
celebrated life. For the true fan, this
amazing museum is a must-see. There is
year-long calendar full of events, and the
hours vary according to season. There's a
gift shop in the museum, and the studio of
Norman Rockwell may be toured as well. If
