The Lyndon House Arts Center is a community visual arts complex that incorporates gallery spaces, art class studios, meeting rooms, a research library, event spaces, and festival grounds. The recent expansion was planned to be compatible with the architecture of the magnificent Ware-Lyndon House (c. 1856), a two-story, late Greek Revival home with Italianate influence. Meticulously restored and serving as a house museum of decorative arts, the house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
