The 2025 Putting the Berkshires on the Map Honoree
“Over the past four decades, the Norman Rockwell Museum has grown from a small hometown museum into a nationally recognized center for American illustration,” stated Jonathan Butler, CEO and President of 1Berkshire. “This transformation was a collaborative effort led with clarity and purpose by the Museum’s Director/CEO, Laurie Norton Moffatt, and made possible by the trust, investment, and tireless support of board members, staff, volunteers, patrons, the Rockwell family, and the Berkshire community. 1Berkshire is proud to announce them as our Putting the Berkshires on the Map honoree”.
From its home in Stockbridge, the Museum has welcomed more than 6.7 million visitors and brought travelers from across the globe to experience the Berkshires. Together with staff, Board, and national partners, Laurie helped shift the cultural narrative around illustration—from overlooked to essential—cementing the Museum as a national leader in the field.
Be sure to join us at Celebrate the Berkshires as we honor the Norman Rockwell Museum’s lasting impact on our region.
