Wistariahurst

"While it was probably 3 to 5 years ago at this point, I do remember how authentic they were able to make the entire museum fit its time period."

"Attended an amazing event at Wistariahurst Museum on Friday, October 6. It was a presentation by five Holyoke High students about the internship they had at the Museum over the previous summer. The students were excited about the work that they did with archiving and cataloging items that reflect Holyoke's more current history. They shared that they are going away with a new way of seeing the world; that their awareness of differences between people and cultures is worthy of patience and understanding. We need so much of that in the world today. As an older person, I walked away with an incredible amount of hope - something sorely needed in these times. If these students are representative of their generation we are going to be in good hands. Wistariahurst - please, please, please continue supporting this program - and other programs of this type. You will become the beacon of change for the good of Holyoke and the world. Thank you!!!!!"

"I love the varied gardens on the grounds. You can order plants online in the summer with pickup on Friday mornings."

"This is a beautiful house building thing museum thing and I would reccomend anyone to check it out for a glimpse into the past. I haven't been there recently with covid restrictions, but during my last visit staff was wonderful and helpful in educating us about the past. 10 out of 10!"

"This is the perfect venue for our wedding ceremony! It offers both beautiful indoor and outdoor options, and so many dynamic spaces for pictures! Sara was well organized and helped with planning and ideas all along the way. She was open to my many ideas and helped to make the event all that we hoped for and more!"
