SUMMARY:2026 Mary Keane Chapel Summer Concert Series
DESCRIPTION:Mary Keane Chapel Summer Concert Series\nSunday\, August 23\, 2026\n4:00 pm Start\nAll concerts will be held in the Mary Keane Chapel\nEnfield Shaker Museum\n447 NH Route 4A\nEnfield\, NH 03748\nshakermuseum.org \nSuggested donation $15.00. All concert donations support the ongoing restoration of the organ. \nAll concerts will be followed by a reception in the Museum Herb Garden (weather permitting) or in the Great Stone Dwelling. \nOrgan Choral Masterworks\nMary Keane Chapel Summer Chorale\nThe Mary Keane Chapel Summer Chorale\, under the direction of organist and conductor/director Henry Danaher\, will present a concert of Organ Choral Masterworks. \nIncluded in the program will be Messe Solennelle by Louis Viere\, Motets by Maurice Durufle\, and Sacred Songs by Brahms\, Sweelinck\, and the Shakers.  \nThe ensemble includes singers and conductors from several Upper Valley Choral groups\, with Henry Danaher at the organ. \nOrgan Restoration Update \nBob Waters and Richard Nickerson are continuing to address important restoration needs on the Casavant organ in the Museum’s Mary Keane Chapel. This fall and winter they removed and completely rebuilt the wind chest that receives and regulates the air pressure produced by the organ’s electric blower. This included replacing all the original leather work that controls the release of air to the organ pipes. In addition to maintaining the organ’s tuning\, they have been repairing coupling mechanisms that have failed. Unfortunately the Casavant company no longer makes certain replacement parts\, so some aspects of the restoration work requires creative problem solving. We are fortunate to have two craftsmen\, well versed in the intricacies of Casavant organ construction\, caring for this precious instrument. \nThank you for your support of their ongoing restoration work.

SUMMARY:Shaker Herb Garden Tour
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nWeekly Shaker Herb Garden Tour\nwith Herbalist Happy Griffiths\nFridays at 11 am\, meet by the rose bushes in the garden\nJoin renowned herbalist and founder of the Enfield Shaker Museum Herb Garden\, Happy Griffiths\, for a guided tour through one of the Museum’s most beloved living exhibits. \nDiscover the fascinating history of the Shakers’ herb-growing traditions as you explore beds of culinary\, medicinal\, aromatic\, and dye plants. Along the way\, Happy will share stories of how these herbs were cultivated and used by the Enfield Shakers\, as well as their practical uses in today’s gardens and homes. \nWith decades of experience as an herbalist\, educator\, and the visionary behind the Museum’s herb garden\, Happy brings each tour to life with engaging insights and a deep appreciation for the connections between people\, plants\, and history. The Museum’s herb garden features many of the same plants that were grown by the Shakers as part of their thriving herb and medicine enterprise. \nFridays at 11:00 a.m. \nTours are free with Museum admission and are open to visitors of all ages. Whether you’re an avid gardener\, curious about herbal traditions\, or simply looking for a beautiful way to experience the Museum grounds\, this tour offers a unique opportunity to explore the living legacy of the Enfield Shakers. \nWhat to Expect \nTours last approximately one hour and take place rain or shine\, except in the case of thunder or lightning. Much of the tour is outdoors in full sun\, so we recommend dressing for the weather\, wearing comfortable walking shoes\, and bringing water\, sunscreen\, or rain gear as needed. \nThe herb garden features maintained paths\, but visitors should expect some uneven terrain. Benches are available in both sunny and shaded areas throughout the garden for those who would like to sit during the tour. \nVisitors are encouraged to engage all of their senses. You’ll have opportunities to see\, smell\, and ~when invited by your guide~ even taste selected herbs.
