New Bedford has a past that is legendary. Throughout time our small community has celebrated being at the pinnacle of world culture and prominence twice. Once with it's rich whale trade. A time when boat owners and captains searched the vast oceans for their pray. Returning to New Bedford to build spectacular homes and amass grand wealth. Many of these magnificent homes still survive today. Grand foyers, crown molding, multiple fire places, details that would cost a small fortune to have replaced today. It's possible to own a peice of history here. That's cool.The second time in history was during the textile industry. Expert seamstresses, craftsman in their trade, would produce fabric for the worlds markets. Taking the finest raw materials like silk, cashmere, wool and cotton, then weaving it into limitless patterns and designs. New Bedford still captivates the heart. www.newbedford-ma.gov
From the cobble stone streets, to the Whaling Museum the charm and character harken back to a simpler time. The shops, restaurants, gallerys, offer the best of living by the sea. Your selection of "prairie" paintings might be limited. But sea scapes, ocean views, boats we've got lots of that. Jewelry items, T-shirts of course.
