Top 10 Free Things to do in Lenox, Massachusetts (MA)
It seems like every time of year is "in season" in Lenox, a small Berkshire town that has been a popular retreat since the 19th century. In summer, picnic on the lawn at Tanglewood, the Boston Symphony Orchestra's summer home. In fall, when foliage peaks, take to the hiking and biking paths of the Pleasant Valley Sanctuary to immerse yourself in the vibrant colors of the mountains. Winter visitors enjoy skiing at a number of resorts and cross-country trails, and in spring, hikers and golfers practice their pastimes in splendid settings. Rejuvenating treatments and pampering, at the well-known Cranwell Spa, are favored all year long.

Two decades ago in the village of Lenox, Massachusetts, Lynda Strauch, with her two young children, opened Concepts of Art. It was for her a business venture that combined two of her passions, art and Judaism. From a modest start, Concepts of Art/Lenox Judaica has grown to include several thousand Jewish ceremonial items, fine art, and jewelry, showcasing artists and products from Massachusetts to Jerusalem. Each item is personally chosen: from whimsical to elegant, from modestly priced to museum quality.

This place was light filled with lots of different art. There were so many pieces I found attractive and interesting. Lots of glass which is a favourite, plus some metal and wood. The variety and quality was fabulous....definitely worth a visit for a browse or a special purchase!

I visited Andrew at the River Studio in Middlefield. The Sculpture Trail is truly breathtaking! There is something quite amazing about seeing Andrew's works in the place where they come to life. Although I so enjoyed the gallery and Andrew's many exhibitions, the River Studio is by far my favorite place!

We stumbled upon the bookstore in our way home after lunch. The bookstore is closed to public during Covid but the owner Matt and his staff were beyond helpful and picked a few suggestions and showed them by the window. Three classic and one trending Stem books. We loved what they picked for us. They offer curbside pickup and hopefully when it’s safe to open the store we will be there to see their full collection!

I have been shopping here for years. The staff is very polite and very knowledgeable. The kayak rental was smooth as silk. Eric drove the kayaks to the boat launch, set us up, and off we went! It was so easy. When we were finished, we called the shop and the kayaks were picked up from the boat launch. We didn’t have to wait. Also, there is a cafe inside the shop that serves great coffee and delicious sandwiches. Give it a try!
