The open-air beauty and aural excellence echoing through the Berkshire Hills make this a fitting opening for our trip. We next travel to Pittsfield where we check-in at the centrally located Crowne Plaza Hotel. The hotel's modern facilities include whirlpool, sauna, exercise equipment, and an outdoor pool, two restaurants and room service. We have a welcome dinner near the hotel. More than a static display hall, MASS MoCA provides space, tools, and time for artists, cultural institutions and businesses working in sculpture, theater, dance, film, digital media and music.
New work is created in partnership with cutting edge technology and new media companies.
After lunch on your own in the North Adams area we return to the hotel to relax. This afternoon we travel to the charming town of Stockbridge . Stockbridge has its own its own beauty and charm. Take a deep breath, inhale the Berkshire mountain air, slow your pace to match the town's character and stroll the streets, pathways, and gardens. You'll have free time to browse and have dinner on your own.
