Interesting

Historic places invite us to slow down, look closer, and reconnect with creativity, community, and ourselves. In a world that rarely stops moving, they offer something increasingly rare: wonder.

Our 2026 Coloring Book (PDF download) features 14 intricate illustrations inspired by National Trust Historic Sites and members of the Historic Artists’ Homes and Studios program.

Part mindfulness exercise, part armchair travel, part celebration of preservation—it’s a chance to experience the joy of historic places from home.

This coloring book can be printed and colored by hand, or downloaded and colored digitally using the app or software of your choice. Enjoy!
