On Saturdays, March 18 and April 1, visitors will have the unique opportunity to explore the expansive grounds at Canterbury Shaker Village during its popular annual Sugar Camp Guided Hiking Tours.

Held every Monday from March 13 through May, Tai Chi at the Village represents an opportunity to learn Tai Chi from Darcy Cushing, a student of the renowned Tung family T’ai Chi Style. Tai Chi at the Village represents the latest in a number of Tai Chi classes and workshops that have been held over the years.

Education is an important part of the experience at Canterbury Shaker Village, which provides a variety of tours throughout its expansive campus.
These tours will be enhanced this year at the Village, which reopens on Saturday, May 13, with
a smartphone experience.
