Inspired by the Forbes family legacy of entrepreneurship, social action and philanthropy, the Forbes House Museum fosters discourse around civic engagement and cultural awareness.
Our organization is committed to responsibly preserving the Forbes family history in the context of the social, cultural and economic currents of its time, and extending its legacy of entrepreneurship, social action and philanthropy today. Built in 1833 as the home of Margaret Perkins Forbes and her family, the Forbes House Museum includes Chinese export art, Civil War artifacts and Lincoln memorabilia among its collections. The Greek Revival home is a National Historic Landmark.
