The
BOMBYX Center for Arts & Equity is located just off route 9 in the heart of Florence, Massachusetts, adjacent to the Sojourner Truth Memorial. While we have our own zip code, Florence is a village within the City of Northampton. We are a short 5-minute drive from Northampton’s vibrant and walkable downtown and easily accessible from Interstate 91.
If you're coming from out-of-town, you'll find a plethora of restaurants, galleries, parks, craft breweries, and shops in the area to enhance your visit. If you’re curious about what has come before, you’ll find a treasure trove of resources and exhibits by visiting our friends at the
David Ruggles Center and
Historic Northampton.
Bring your bicycle, rollerblades, or walking shoes. Florence is situated on the
Northampton Rail Trail which connects to a regional network of bike paths. Younger visitors may enjoy an excursion to
Look Park which boasts a steam train, pedal boats, wildlife center, and more.
