Baseball in the Berkshires Museum in Residence in Lee

LEE, Mass. – Berkshire County’s newest Museum is now open.

 

Baseball in the Berkshires Museum is free and open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays in the Lee Premium Outlets.

 

The Museum is located in Suite B 55, between Lindt Chocolate and Johnston & Murphy. Its present exhibit is titled - "The Fascinating Story of Baseball in the Berkshires.”

 

This multi-media exhibit features stories that tell about the rich history of baseball in the Berkshires. Artifacts related to important dates, landmarks, events, teams or persons are displayed throughout the exhibit.

 

Visitors will find interesting stories about many of our local “heroes” as well as some about baseball legends and their connection to the Berkshires.

 

Visitors of all ages are drawn into this exhibit not only by the subject matter but its interest to people of all walks of life. Our young visitors are attracted to the interactive children's display where they are able to touch, feel, compare and try-on the artifacts. Reading stations for our younger generation or our young at heart are created to share a story, baseball memory or a picture book.

 

This exhibit ensures that memories will be made here and remembered for years to come.
