Pop-Up Exhibit: Four Continents. Many Craftsmen. One Masterwork.


  • Stonehurst 100 Robert Treat Paine Drive Waltham, MA, 02452 (map)

Outside, Stonehurst is rooted in the New England landscape. Inside, it celebrates the blending of cultures that defines this nation of immigrants.

On your next walk at Stonehurst (wearing your mask to keep our community safe), peek through the windows for a pop-up exhibit that draws from handcrafts of four continents: North America, Asia, Europe and Africa.

Go on an outdoor family-friendly scavenger hunt for craftsmanship in wood, metal, glass and stone.

Thanks to a recent grant from Waltham Community Preservation Committee, the house exterior will be restored in 2021. Visit the grounds throughout the year to watch today’s craftspeople carefully restore the house, honoring the artisans of many backgrounds who came before them.

Discover the crafts and craftspeople of Stonehurst such as the master builder who trained in ship building. Look for a new entry and video clip each month…
