12 Days of Giveaways (Day 2) — Norman Rockwell Museum

By Berkshires Macaroni Kid December 4, 2018

Welcome to Berkshires Macaroni Kid's 12 Days of Holiday Giveaways 2018. Today is Day 2 of our giveaways and today's giveaway is sponsored by the Norman Rockwell Museum.

The Norman Rockwell Museum holds the world’s largest and most significant collection of original art by Norman Rockwell, including more than 800 paintings, drawings, and studies and an archive of more than 150,000 photographs, letters, and materials. The museum’s campus includes the artist’s original Stockbridge studio, moved from the center of town, which stands today much as it did in Rockwell’s lifetime.

The museum presents, preserves, and studies the art of illustration and is a world resource for reflection, involvement, and discovery inspired by Norman Rockwell and the power of visual images to shape and reflect society.
 
The Norman Rockwell Museum also advances social good through the civic values of learning, respect, and inclusion and is committed to upholding the rights and dignity of all people through the universal messages of humanity and kindness portrayed by Norman Rockwell.

The museum will host a number of programs for families during December (see a complete list below) and if you can't wait to see if you've won and want to visit right away go online to nrm.org for more information how to visit.
