Our Community
Brimfield Wind is a new wind power project proposed for Brimfield, Massachusetts by Boston-based wind energy developer and operator First Wind. If approved, Brimfield Wind will help local residents harness the economic and environmental benefits of wind power, all while supplying our state and New England with pollution-free energy. When completed, Brimfield Wind would be the first project in Massachusetts for First Wind, as well as another example of First Wind’s ongoing mission to work with community members to create jobs, build local revenue and increase American energy independence.
If you are a resident of Brimfield, you need to learn about this project as it may come to a town vote according to First Wind representatives. Click on the Firstwind Logo above for detailed information.

When Myra Keep Lovell Moulton died in 1988, the last of a long line of Keeps in Monson, she willed her property, its contents and an endowment fund to the town. She was an avid collector and her button collection is considered one of the largest in the US. She mastered many forms of needlework and many of her works are on isplay, as are examples of her work in oil, water color and ceramics. History was also important to Myra and the museum contains many examples of this interest: history of her family, her town, her church, rocks and minerals of the area -- to name only a few.
Open House: 1st Sunday of each month 1:00-3:00pm from early April to December. Nature tours frequently available with former National Park Service naturalist

Beyond Belief: The Curious Collection of Professor Rufus Excalibur Bell, a new exhibition opening Saturday, June 20, at the Higgins. Although Bell is an imaginary character, the dragons, gargoyles and myriad of fantastic creatures he’s “discovered” come alive through the talents of Somerville, Mass., artist Hilary Scott. The 70 artifacts and specimens, as well as the equipment that Bell uses to find his discoveries, are displayed in a recreation of Bell’s Edwardian study and the museum space where they are unpacked and identified. “Beyond Belief” is open through 2011; accompanying programming will run throughout the year.
