Making it on Main Street
Historic Northampton
Northampton, MA

The history of Main Street is more than a changing parade of stores. Opened in June 2019, “Making it on Main Street” tells the story of the people who lived, worked, played, and celebrated on Main Street—how they earned a living, faced the challenges of changing times, treated their neighbors and outsiders, advocated for justice, and shaped the Main Street we walk today. 

The newly designed exhibition space displays a chronology in glass cases, with background murals drawn from descriptions of the historical landscape, prints, and photographs drawn by local artist Nancy Haver. 

Completed in partnership with The Square Office
