The Florence Griswold House, the historic centerpiece of the Museum, reopens to public having undergone extensive restoration. This 1817 National Historic Landmark was the original boardinghouse for the Lyme Art Colony from 1899 to the 1930s. Open to the public in 1947, the Museum is named after Florence Griswold, who transformed her family home into a country retreat for artists.
