Thurber House

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Thurber House is a literary center, museum, and bookstore located in the restored 19th century home of famed author, humorist, and New Yorker cartoonist James Thurber ("The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," My Life and Hard Times, and other works).

Thurber House hosts events with bestselling authors, writing classes, literary picnics on the lawn, and education camps and classes for children in preschool through high school. Other programs include two month-long author residencies and the Thurber Prize for American Humor—the highest recognition of humor writing in the country.

The 1873 home has been restored to the way it looked when the Thurber family lived here in the early 1900's. Our tour guides will give you an overview of the Thurber family, point out Thurber artifacts and memorabilia in the house, and even go into the haunted history of the building—if you dare. While you're here, be sure to visit our historical marker, the dog garden, and the unicorn in the garden!
