We are pleased to offer guided tours and activities to schools, organizations, corporations, and individuals. Our offerings include a historical tour depicting how life was in the 1890’s and fun facts about the family that built and lived in our mansion. Learn about the Chaffee family that built and lived in the mansion. Explore the architecture, hidden gems, family secrets, local lore and more. We can customize any tour to include an art activity or special feature.

The Chaffee Art Center realizes the importance of promoting a culture of inclusion and accessibility, and are continually trying to improve upon this. The first floor galleries and Gallery Shoppe are wheelchair accessible by a ramp from the parking lot around to the front entrance of the building.
