Buttonwoods Museum has added three walking/driving tours to its Museum From Home offerings at buttonwoods.org.
The website provides printable, self-guided tours of the West Parish Cemeteries, Haverhill’s War Monuments and Rocks Village architecture.
Buttonwoods, like the majority of historic sites and museums around the world, has closed its doors to slow the spread of COVID-19. #MuseumFromHome is a shared effort of museums to bring their cultural and historical content to visitors, even as their visitors do their part by staying home.
Museum officials note Museum From Home features the Buttonwood’s resources that allow visitors to learn about Haverhill history either in their own homes or in outdoor spaces that allow for social distancing measures.
