Things to do This Weekend

Looking for something to do in Massachusetts this weekend? Here are some highlights across the state.

Welcome to November at The Trustees! Check out fun happenings across the state this weekend. 

November is Native American Heritage Month. Celebrate with a special self-guided StoryWalk® featuring Fry Bread: A Native American Family Story by Kevin Noble Maillard, illustrated by Juana Martinez-Neal at Stevens-Coolidge House and Gardens in North Andover. 

Enjoy the late fall season with us! At Appleton Farms in Hamilton and Ipswich, attend a celebration of the Harvest season at our annual Harvest Market! Our Harvest Market features a true celebrational bounty of Appleton’s organic produce accompanied by hand crafted gifts from local area artisans. 

At Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, help us say goodbye to the 2026 Main Season in style at our 13th annual bonfire. Guests will be encouraged to write down a wish and tuck it into the collection basket before we light it afire, sending our hopes and dreams into the night sky.   

Come to the Crane Estate Art Show and Sale at the Crane Estate in Ipswich to see amazing paintings, photography, fiber art, and sculpture in a stellar setting. Admission to the Art Show is free. Reserve a timed entry pass, which gives you 3 hours to explore Castle Hill’s grounds and gardens and visit the Art Show. 

At The Old Manse in Concord, choose from a variety of tours to experience the property from a unique lens. Offerings include Home to Two Revolutions, a tour highlighting revolutionary figures and literary greats; On the Gold Light, a candlelit tour; a Family-Friendly Tour, and Flipping the Script, a tour featuring the women of The Old Manse.
