The Emily Dickinson Museum includes The Homestead, where poet Emily Dickinson was born and lived most of her life, and The Evergreens, home of the poet’s brother and his family. The two houses share three acres of the original Dickinson property in the center of Amherst, Massachusetts.
The Emily Dickinson Museum is open from March through December. Our current hours are Wednesday through Sunday, 11 am to 4 pm. The Museum is closed on Monday and Tuesday. To plan your visit, click here for details about admission fees, tours, and other schedule information for 2013.
