Museums | Folk Art: Ornamentation, Vibrant Drawings and Over 100 Handmade Gameboards - Tour

Another exhibition contains about 100 handmade gameboards, including chess, Parcheesi, checkers, Monopoly, Chutes and Ladders crafted between the mid-19 and early-20 centuries. The Shakers are a religious community founded in the 18th century in England. They are known for their unique beliefs, which include celibacy, communal living, and a strong emphasis on craftsmanship and simplicity. They are also recognized for their distinctive style of furniture and architecture, as well as their vibrant music and dance traditions. In the early 20th century, there were about 12 Shaker communities in the US and as of 2019, there is only one active Shaker village remaining, located in Maine.
