About the event
Join us for a day of family fun at Weir Farm National Historical Park, a place that has been inspiring artists since 1882 when America’s most beloved Impressionist, Julian Alden Weir, made this his summer home. Today, artists and visitors of all ages come to the park to enjoy the stunning landscape, walk in the footsteps of American masters, and create art! Set amidst more than 60 acres of painterly woods, fields, and waterways, we'll see why Weir described his home as the "Great Good Place."Â
