Memorial Hall Museum offers exhibitions, historical context and educational programs about the art and history of western Massachusetts and New England.

Memorial Hall is one of New England's oldest museums. When Deerfield Academy's original 1798 school building became available, antiquarian George Sheldon organized the collection of artifacts he was assembling, and in 1880 Memorial Hall opened. The museum's extraordinary collection of furnishings, paintings, textiles, and Indian artifacts is "the finest collection of local antiquities in New England" and is one of America's oldest museums.
