Stories From the Quarry

Did you ever wonder why so many buildings and house foundations in Monson are made of granite? Memorial Hall, Monson Free Library, Unitarian-Universalist Church, and St. Patrick’s Church all showcase Monson’s beautiful granite from Flynt Quarry.

Join us on Sunday, April 6, 2025 for our season opener event and learn more about the workings of the Flynt Quarry.

Several generations of the Pascale family will share stories of the work in the quarry. They will demonstrate the techniques involved in stone cutting and carving using the original tools of master stone mason Ezio DeSantis.

This program starts at 1:30 pm and is open to the public free of charge though donations are welcome. The museum is open for viewing of new displays from 1–3:30 pm.
