N2  - "Well known for its world-renowned art museums--from the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston--Massachusetts is also home to numerous institutions with more eclectic collections and, oftentimes, lower profiles. These include Mansfield's National Black Doll Museum of History and Culture, Watertown's Plumbing Museum, and Granville's Noble and Cooley Center for Historic Preservation.
