Arthur Wesley Dow Park
Ipswich, Massachusetts


April 6, 1857 - December 13, 1922

Native and pioneer historian of Ipswich.

Artist of rare gifts, teacher of art who endeared himself to many student generations.

On this hill he built his studio in which much of his creative work was accomplished and on his death bequethed its site to his fellow townsmen in these words: I give to the Town of Ipswich, Bayberry Hill (so-called by me) within said town, with a commanding view, which is dear to me, over the marshes, creeks, rivers, and hills to the ocean, to have and to hold by said town and its inhabitants forever, for the use of the public as a place of recreation and enjoyment.
