Venue notes from Amherst Area tracks

The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art

Founded by Eric Carle, the renowned illustrator of 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar,' one of the most beloved children's books of all time
Houses a vast international picture book collection from around the world with rotating exhibitions featuring renowned illustrators

The museum preserves two distinct houses with contrasting restoration approaches: Emily Dickinson's Homestead is restored to its 19th-century appearance during her lifetime, while The Evergreens (her brother's house) maintains its original interior as it was, offering visitors two different preservation philosophies side-by-side
The museum offers a unique intimate experience allowing visitors to spend a dedicated hour in Emily Dickinson's personal writing room, the space where she composed her famous poetry

Laser Blast

The arena features a multi-level playing space with upper areas designed for sniper-style gameplay, in addition to ground-level positions with hiding spots for tactical gameplay
Requires all players to watch an instructional safety video before gameplay, which reviewers noted as informative and part of the pre-game process

Prodigy

Is an independent mini golf course with a curated collection of retro arcade games and gaming artifacts from the 1980s-90s, where players can play vintage cartridges and systems after completing their round as part of the admission price
The course is intentionally designed as a challenging, difficult mini golf experience with creative hole designs including rope-pulling mechanics with pipes, contrasting sharply with typical child-oriented mini golf courses

The rink features a unique telephone receiver-shaped floor with two bulb-shaped ends and a straightaway in a two-lane configuration, allowing skaters going in opposite directions to pass each other like a two-lane highway
Located on the 2nd floor of a mall in the Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts, making it an unusually situated roller rink in a non-traditional venue
