I came to the Berkshires to stay at Kripalu, but had to stop here on my way home. I've always admired Rockwell's work especially the Saturday Evening Post covers, but I didn't realize how prolific he was and how carefully each illustration was rendered. The short movie about his life was interesting and not too long. The basement has gallery... More

Small museum, but packed with art that captures America. Rockwell's studio also sits on the grounds allowing you to see where he worked on his classic images. Won't take too long to go through entire museum, even allowing for studying of images. Small terrace cafe carries salads,sandwiches and beverages if you're hungry. Sculpture is scattered throughout the grounds. A must... More

$15/pp for about 60minutes worth of museum. The Four Freedoms are gorgeous and the Post covers on the lower level are cool, but that's about it.

The Rockwell is a treasure onto itself offering something for all age groups. Even a place for young ones to make their own illustrations on Sat. Eve. Post copy paper.

This museum brought back a lot of memories! It is well laid out, and the docent was very knowledgable. For anyone who grew up with the Saturday Evening Post, it is a trip back in time. It is a good museum for children as a lot of the illustrations are about children in everyday life. The studio was not open,... More

First, you have to accept that Rockwell was an illustrator, not a painter - he himself admitted that. But, he was one of the very best. We had the pleasure of listening to a knowlegable docent at the beginning, which really set the stage. The audio tour provides most of the same, but without the immediacy and warmth. They also...

I enjoy visiting this museum every time we visit the Berkshires. The artwork is incredible, especially when listening in on the docent giving a tour. (If you do, be sure to visit Rockwell's studio on the grounds and have the staff person there point out and explain some of the items in there!!!) In the lower level there are are... More
