Cummington Cultural District

Cultural Series Organization

The purpose of the Cummington Cultural District is to engage the entire town in an inclusive and positive effort to identify priorities and work towards a vibrant Village area with collaborative programming and marketing to new audiences to experience all the things which make Cummington special. We have identified three primary goals:

Goal 1 - Community Cohesion

Goal 2 - Collaborative Programming & Marketing

Goal 3 - Enhanced Space and Buildings through Arts & Culture

By coming together to form a cultural district and working together to achieve the prioritized goals, Cummington hopes to use artists' vision and creativity to revitalize its economy, improve underutilized space, and bring residents together around a shared identity.

Current Cummington Cultural District Committee Members Include:

  • John Bye 
  • Leslie Ferrin
  • Ilse Godfrey
  • Robert Godfrey III
  • J Huntington Chase (Hilltown CDC)
