Grant will help Shaker Museum project
CHATHAM – Shaker Museum was awarded a two-year, $230,000 grant from the Henry Luce Foundation for the installation of the Shaker Belief, Shaker Life, Shaker Community collection, to be presented at the launch of the museum’s upcoming facility in downtown Chatham.
Curated by Maggie Taft, the display will offer a kaleidoscopic view of American Shakerism from the religion’s founding in the late 18th century to its flourishing in the 19th century and decline in the 20th. Using selections from Shaker Museum’s collection, the exhibition will explore how Shakerism’s radical foundational values of equality, inclusion, and accessibility were pursued and experienced by members of Shaker communities, according to the museum.
