A visit to Chesterwood takes you into the environment that inspired one of America’s greatest artists. You’ll see the same view of Monument Mountain that convinced Daniel Chester French to spend thirty summers here, the Studio where he worked, the gardens and woods that gave him peace, and the home where he lived with his family. Today, you will also be able to explore an in-depth exhibit of his life and his most famous sculptures, participate in a wide range of events and activities, including educational programs and the annual Contemporary Sculpture at Chesterwood show, and shop for unique gifts. If you really fall in love with Chesterwood (and we guarantee you will!), consider an overnight stay in the Meadowlark (French’s personal retreat and studio) or rent the site for your wedding or special event.
