Free for the Asking: Guide to Barn Art
The “Berks County Hex Barn Art Tour” pamphlet packs a lot of facts onto both sides of a letter-size sheet. It gives directions for a 30-mile drive through the Pennsylvania county that passes 20 barns decorated with so-called hex signs, colorful traditional designs signifying good luck, fertility and other qualities. The pamphlet gives a short history of the Pennsylvania Dutch folk art. Tel. (800) 443-6610.
