Pop-up Museum: Native American Stone Artifacts & Tools

The Outdoor Native American Pop-up Museum will feature artifacts from the Westford Museum collection, a related children’s craft and storytime.

Evidence of Native Americans has been found in Westford areas such as Boutwells Meadow and Providence Meadow, and the Stone Circle at Grassy Pond. There is also evidence of a larger encampment with lodges at what is today called Forge Pond. Many of the Westford Museum’s stone artifacts and tools are from these area.

Join us for storytime at 3:00 pm. We will read Three Sisters Garden by Sandy Baker, a fun story of Cara, Sara, and Bari planting corn, squash, and beans, much like Native Americans have for centuries.

Our featured craft will be to start your own Tree Sisters companion garden  with corn, squash and beans.
