keep homestead museum

Keep Homestead Museum offers very authentic and carefully preserved aspects of life in a New England Farmhouse, but it also is one of the premier button museums in the U.S. The mosaic buttons alone are worth a visit to the small New England town of Monson.

Very nice grounds with walking trails. Excellent antique button collection. Nice homestead museum. Open on a limited basis, but has open houses and programming once a month for most of the year.

If you like, collect, or just want to see many beautiful buttons this is the place to go to. The Museum was the home of Myra Keep. She was an avid button collector. Her collection of Needlework and buttons is a New England Treasure.. The land around the home is beautiful too. The Monson Button Club also meets at the museum.
