Bennington Museum in Vermont: What to See & Our Review

We spent a week exploring southwest Vermont, staying just outside of Bennington, and ended up really enjoying the area. Bennington has a lot of interesting history, charming local spots, and plenty to explore, so we were excited to learn more about the town during our visit. One of the highlights was the Bennington Museum, a regional museum covering everything from Vermont history and folk art to some pretty unexpected local stories. With an extensive collection of Grandma Moses artwork, historical artifacts, and rotating exhibits, it turned out to be one of the more interesting museums in Vermont that we’ve visited. If you’re looking for things to do in Bennington, VT, here’s a closer look at what you can expect from a visit to the Bennington Museum.
