Cherished Memories

Curated by Jack Larkin, museum trustee and Chief Historian at Old Sturbridge Village, Cherished Memories contains a selection of the many faces in the portrait collection. Children, families, and elders are represented. Once these portraits hung in homes to honor cherished memories of family, living and dead, and community. In this exhibit we invite you to remember those yesterdays of people and times that have slipped away.
