the berkshires

Tucked in the far western corner of Massachusetts, Berkshire County is a splendid mix of scenic beauty and culture. Its small new England villages are set in deep river valleys, embraced by rolling forested hills. Few places in the world offer as vast a spectrum of the arts and as lovely a countryside as do the Berkshires. With 65 non-profit cultural organizations, including four theatre festivals, a dance festival, a myriad of musical venues, including Tanglewood, scores of museums, the Berkshires have proven that culture is a destination. Founded in 1928, Berkshire Theatre Festival is proud to be the oldest performing arts venue in the county.
