SUMMARY:Ongoing - Great Hall Exhibit: A First-Class Machine Shop *
DESCRIPTION:Our Great Hall building here at the center was once a machine shop for the Montague Paper Company. This exhibit examines the critical supporting role that metalworking and machining had in launching industrialization in Turners Falls. High quality newsprint and book paper would not have been made here were it not for the knowledge\, skills\, innovation\, and physical labor of metalworkers\, machinists\, engineers\, and master mechanics. \n*Food\, Farms\, and Factories \nIn 2024\, the Friends of the Great Falls Discovery Center present programs and exhibits about Food\, Farms\, and Factories\, continuing conversations about rural life in Turners Falls and Franklin County. Supported by the Friends of the Great Falls Discovery Center\, RiverCulture\, the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association\, the Department of Conservation and Recreation\, and Montague Public Libraries. Funded by Mass Humanities through the Massachusetts Cultural Council and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Visit greatfallsdiscoverycenter.org/foodfarmsandfactories to learn more.
