Part
of the Town of Montague, the Village of Turners Falls is an
extraordinary historic mill town that is blossoming from its industrial
roots to become a hub of artistic inspiration, recreational adventure
and natural beauty. The RiverCulture Project seeks to promote this
rebirth of an area that is filled with history, promise, and a
character all its own. Come experience Turners Falls and RiverCulture
for yourself!
