The exhibition focuses on the concept of home and its physical, spiritual and symbolic elements. Co-executive director Joanne Ingersoll has devoted one room entirely to the legacy of Wallace Nutting who she felt crafted an iconic image of the American home. Joanne feels that Nutting preservation of several colonial homes from destruction sets him apart from other furniture makers of his time. On loan are several pieces of Nutting furniture, including a very rare settee, photographs, silhouettes, treenware pieces and ironwork from the collection of Sharon and Kenny Lacasse.
