Whistler House Museum of Art, Art museum in Lowell, United States.
Whistler House Museum of Art is an art museum housed in a three-story building with fourteen rooms built in Federal and Greek Revival styles. The house contains ten fireplaces and displays a collection of artworks throughout its spaces.
The building was constructed in 1823 for the Locks and Canals Company as an office and residence. A notable painter was born here in 1834, later making the house an important site in art history.
The museum showcases American artworks and dedicates a room to etchings by James McNeill Whistler. Visitors can see how these pieces are displayed throughout the historic rooms.
The site is open to visitors on weekdays and weekends, allowing time to explore the rooms at a comfortable pace. Special exhibitions are held in a dedicated gallery at the back of the building.
The top floor still maintains working studios where living artists continue the creative tradition within these historic walls. These spaces allow visitors to observe contemporary creators engaged in their craft.
