The Springfield Museums may be located on the Quadrangle, but they recently hit the trifecta in the Readers Raves poll. The museums were selected by readers of The Republican and MassLive.com in three categories for the 2013 Reader Raves: Best Museum, Best Gift Shop and Best Rainy Day Place for the Family.
