The Becket Athenaeum, also known as Becket & Washington’s Community Library, is a historic institution in Becket, Massachusetts.[1]
Architecture and Preservation
The library is housed in the former North Congregational Church building, which was built in greek revival style.[2] It still has a wood exterior, though the steeple was removed upon deterioration. Stained glass windows and a bell were relocated to the Federated Church.
