NRM and The Mount Announce Readings at Rockwell

Stockbridge, MA – January 22, 2025 – The Norman Rockwell Museum is partnering with The Mount, Edith Wharton’s Home to present Readings at Rockwell, a new literary series that highlights the power of the written word through dramatic readings of stories by three iconic American authors: Shirley Jackson, Toni Morrison, and Edith Wharton. These intimate performances, held on the first Wednesday of each month from March through May 2025, will take place in the Museum's galleries.

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
