Oakes Ames Memorial Hall, North Easton, MA  02356

    If you’re looking for a truly unique and intimate setting for your event, we invite you to consider Oakes Ames Memorial Hall. Designed by world-renowned architect H.H. Richardson in the late 1800s, the Hall is a National Historic Landmark and a favorite of photographers.

 

   Approached by terraced steps set into natural surroundings designed by famed landscape architect F.L. Olmsted, the Hall is a dramatic presence in the village of North Easton. The town itself reflects the days of yesteryear, with rolling pastures, open spaces and a treasure trove of period architecture. The Oakes Ames Memorial Hall is conveniently located mid-way between Boston and Providence.
