Secretly tucked away in the northern Berkshire Mountains is the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, America’s largest center for visual and performing arts.  Kidspace at Mass MoCA is a 3,200 square foot gallery and studio, where families can engage their children in art projects inspired by current exhibitions.  The museum is located near Mohawk Trail State Forest, a scenic drive with enough changing leaves to inspire your next art project.  On the way back home, swing by the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge before setting the kids free for applepicking at Hilltop Orchards on the New York border.
