Paine Art Center and Gardens

The Paine Art Center and Gardens in Oshkosh, Wisconsin is a historic estate flourishing with art, gardens and inspiration. 

The museum preserves the mansion, surrounding architectural structures, and many of the interiors as they were created by founders Nathan and Jessie Kimberly Paine. Selections from the museum’s art collection, much of which was acquired by Nathan and Jessie, are featured in the many rooms and settings. The Paine presents a wide variety of changing art exhibitions, from historical to contemporary, within the estate’s galleries and gardens. The Studio, located on the house’s lower level, offers a relaxing space for learning and creating. Outdoors, the Paine maintains and enhances nearly four acres of gardens as “galleries” of horticulture, with varied designs and thousands of plant specimens.
