John Farnum House

Bring a little Uxbridge home.

12 oz cotton-canvas tote · 15 × 16 in · front print · blank back · Natural / 15" x 16"

A trip to the shops or a day out can leave room for a familiar place. This cotton-canvas tote carries the John Farnum House, bringing an Uxbridge landmark along with the everyday essentials.

Before a town hall could give public life a permanent address, a house could become a meeting place. The Cornet John Farnum House hosted Uxbridge’s first Town Meeting. At 44 Mendon Street, it connects the town’s beginnings with the work of the Uxbridge Historical Society, which identifies the house as its home. The illustration brings that local gathering place into view through the house’s roofline, windows and wooded setting.

The house's connection to Uxbridge's first Town Meeting gives this everyday carryall a local story to take along. Choose the available color that suits your routine, or give it to someone who knows the town.
