This is one of the very best retail art galleries that I've ever had the pleasure to go in. Every piece in this shop is made by an artisan that is involved in the development. It includes purses, jewelry, and gifts in addition to paintings and drawings. Just wonderful!

The quilts, of which there were many, were among the most beautiful I've seen. Not only were the Kaffe Fassett quilts spectacular, but the traveling exhibit by Texas quilters (two from my neck of the woods) were equally impressive. I had not known that the exhibits change every few months. I'll be back again and again.

We visited during an open house and a delightful gentleman gave us a mini tour. It is a beautiful building filled with amazing artifacts, a fantastic library, and a fun gift shop. They had a breathtakingly beautiful nativity set made of olive wood. And the chandelier in the main hall is gorgeous. There are quite a few outbuildings that show life in a simpler time and place. If you are a history buff who likes to learn about other cultures and geography, this is the place for you. We look forward to returning when we have more time!

We visited this amazing place in November 2014 and came away with a 1966 Thunderbird Convertible that we still own to this day, The owners, Lance And Pam are an absolute delight to do business with and helped us with advice and knowledge for parts for the ongoing restoration and we shipped her back to the UK. The Mechanic working there also was a great help in deciding to purchase the car Even if you are not in the market for a car the place is just great to walk around and visit especially if your are into vintage classic cars and memorabilia and fancy a chat with some lovely people We are still in contact with them and email each other frequently. I hopefully will have the opportunity to return there one day and am always looking at what comes up for sale

Joined members of the SRT for a meeting and tour of the museum and library. An exceptional facility that contains a lot of history and interesting artifacts. I would recommend that both local residents and visitors stop by and learn a lot about the Fayette County people and area.
