There are artful collections hiding in the South’s quieter places.

The sculptures are installed throughout the property, including the recent 14,000-square-foot expansion.

My favorite part about this museum is that admission is always free.

The museums collection is an homage to the Gilded Age and the hobbies and furnishings of the time.

Beyond the museums permanent collection, the building is a work of art.

The gardens and trails are always free and open to visit.
