CANCELED: Isham-Terry Open Tour Sunday
UPDATE: Due to this Sunday’s (July 20) forecast of hot weather, we unfortunately must cancel open tour hours. Learn more about how high temperatures impact touring here. We hope to meet you for a tour of this incredible home on Sunday, August 17. Purchase tickets here!
The Isham-Terry House is a time capsule of genteel life in turn-of-the-century Hartford. In 1896, Dr. Oliver Isham purchased the 1854 Italianate house for his medical practice and as a home for himself, his parents and his three sisters. His sisters, Julia and Charlotte, lived in the house until their deaths in the 1970s as urban renewal claimed many of the houses in the once-grand neighborhood. Explore this beloved family home to learn about the booming industries and culture of Hartford in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, understand medical practice and public health at this time, and learn more about the Isham and Terry families through the items they owned.
