Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park is the former home and studio of renowned American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Nestled in the hills of Cornish, NH, the park features beautifully preserved gardens, historic buildings, and over 100 of his original works. It’s a peaceful and inspiring setting.

1:00 PM – “Beyond the Bronze” Guided Tour
Take a 45-minute walking tour through the historic core of the park, where we’ll explore the life and legacy of Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Learn the stories behind his iconic sculptures and the people they honor – including the often-overlooked narratives behind these monuments.

Experience the powerful rhythms and rich storytelling of the Garifuna Collective, with music rooted in the traditions of the Garifuna people from Belize. This performance is part of the park’s long-running summer concert series, honoring the legacy of Saint-Gaudens, who often held concerts in his studio.
