For more than 200 years, Shaker Village has been shaped by people who returned again and again — to work the land, to care for one another and to preserve something larger than themselves. That spirit still guides us today.
This March, we are proud to introduce Membership at Shaker Village — an evolution of our Annual Pass program that reflects not just how people visit the Village, but why they return.
At its heart, much remains the same. Membership continues to offer complimentary access to The Historic Centre, The Farm and The Preserve. It provides the freedom to walk the trails, attend signature events and return as often as you like throughout the year. The value that passholders have come to rely on — access, flexibility and ease — continues unchanged.
What has evolved is the way those benefits come together.
Membership brings greater intention to how people experience the Village. In addition to the access members already enjoy, the program now includes new ways to deepen that relationship — from preferred member benefits across the site to thoughtfully designed member-only experiences throughout the year.
These experiences are designed to slow the pace and invite return visits. They create opportunities for members to linger, learn something new and experience the Village in ways not always possible during a single-day visit.
Membership also reflects a rhythm of return. Through frequent visits and shared experiences, members become part of the ongoing life of the Village—shaping how it is experienced today and carried forward over time.
Membership at Shaker Village is not a departure from what people know. It is a refinement of what has always mattered. It is about access, made easier. Connection, made deeper. Stewardship, made visible.
We invite you to explore Membership at Shaker Village — and to continue making this place part of your life, season after season.
