Canterbury Shaker Village preserves and interprets the legacy of the Shakers, providing a place for learning, reflection, and renewal of the human spirit.

Canterbury Shaker Village actively engages people of all ages, fostering the Shaker values of community, simplicity, and innovation.

The Canterbury Shakers transformed their inheritance into a museum for the benefit of all. Therefore, we have a duty of stewardship. These values are powerful tools for fulfilling that duty.
