Artists, musicians and writers like Norman Rockwell, Edith Wharton, Herman Melville, Oliver Wendell Holms and John Singer Sergeant all lived in the Southern Berkshires and their homes are open to the public.

There is summer stock theater where many of Broadway's best come to perform and the innovative dance and theater of Jacob's Pillow is world famous. The crowning jewel on the cultural scene is Tanglewood, summer home of the Boston Symphony.
