Cultural District

Lenox Cultural District was established by the Mass Cultural Council in 2019, in recognition of our unique blend of small town charm with world class culture and arts. Lenox Cultural District partners work together on promotion, programming and collaboration with fellow partners and neighboring cultural districts in the Berkshires.

Lenox is home to renowned performing and visual arts venues as well as historic sites, along with destination wellness and lodging facilities. A full cultural experience in Lenox includes sampling our wide array of restaurants, shops, and galleries. Lenox does not simply entertain, it also educates with programming for all ages and interests.

A steering committee works with partners within and beyond the district to develop and implement initiatives and projects.
