Shelburne and the west side is in the town of Buckland. The Shelburne Falls
Mosaic Project was a community wide effort to celebrate the beauty of the rural
area around Shelburne Falls. Artist Cynthia Fisher designed and created 10 3’ x

Massachusetts. In addition, the project included two larger panels entitled "The
Deerfield River" and the "American Indian Portrait".
The visitors center has a map showing the location the 12 mosaics. Each mosaic is labelled from 1 to 12. The Town of Rowe is number 11. The mosaic for the Town of Rowe depicts a rural landscape with a Canada Goose, river otter, red-winged blackbird, sunfish, gazebo, and the year of incorporation - 1785.
