Mount Lebanon Shaker Village Redux
The Shaker Museum and Library in Old Chatham, New York, housing one of the foremost collections of Shaker arts and crafts, closed this year. That’s the bad news.
The good news is that it’s moving to nearby Mount Lebanon, from 1787 to 1946 the most successful Shaker community in America. Now a National Historic Site with nearly 100 buildings on 6,000 acres, Mount Lebanon was damaged by neglect, fire and the passage of time; it twice appeared on the World Monuments Fund list of most endangered sites. It is closed and undergoing renovations, which will take years. Still, when the site finally reopens, the prized Old Chatham collection, begun in 1950 by John S. Williams, will return home to an authentic Shaker village in the wooded hill country on the border between New York and Massachusetts.
Those who’ve toured restored Shaker communities–like the ones at Hancock, Massachusetts , and Pleasant Hill, Kentucky –know that a feeling of lightness emanates from the “simple gifts” of the Shakers. It stems partly from the utopian theology of the separatist sect, brought to America from England in 1774, and partly from the clean, pure aesthetic of its arts and crafts.
