Founded by Nathan and Jessie Paine, the museum preserves the property’s historic architecture, with the mansion as the centerpiece and many of the house’s interiors as they were created by the couple. Selections from the museum’s art collection, much of which was acquired by Nathan and Jessie, are featured throughout the mansion. Outdoors, the estate has evolved from an arboretum to nearly four acres of garden “galleries” with changing displays throughout the seasons.
