About the event

Merrick, Fay & Co. Straw Works Hat Factory
If you have an interest in Monson history, plan to visit the Keep on August 3 at 1:30 pm to hear Bill Dominick share information on the Merrick, Fay, & Co. Straw Works Hat Factory.

Bill, a board member of the Monson Historical Society, will present a program explaining the straw hat factory’s history from 1830–1927. At one time it employed 2,000 people on its Main St. site where the present town offices are located.

He will also share information about the two families who owned the factory and will have historical photos to view.

All are welcome to this free event in the barn and donations are appreciated. The museum will be open for viewing from 1–3:30 pm with light refreshments.
