After a tour of the museum gallery featuring artifacts from all over the world, cross the road to the Peace Dale Library to hear about the large bronze relief, "The Weaver," by Daniel Chester French (known for his seated "Abraham Lincoln" in the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC). The tour continues through the village of Peace Dale where you will learn about its history and the many buildings and mills that were built by the Hazard family.
