Historic Artists’ Homes and Studios (HAHS), a program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, today announced the addition of 13 new member sites to its coalition, comprising six full members and seven affiliate members. The announcement, timed to coincide with National Preservation Month, brings the total number of HAHS member sites to 93, spanning 32 states. Read more about the sites via the links below.

The 2026 class reflects the breadth and depth of American artistic practice across more than two centuries. The new sites span the South, Northeast, West, and Southwest, and represent painting, sculpture, ceramics, and furniture making. These additions deepen a coalition that continues to grow in geographic reach, cultural representation, and artistic range.

“Each new member of the HAHS coalition brings a distinct story of place and artistic practice, and this class is no exception,” said Valerie Balint, Director of Historic Artists’ Homes and Studios. “These thirteen sites span centuries of American creative life, from the Arts and Crafts movement to mid-century modernism to contemporary land art, and together they deepen our understanding of the many forms artistic innovation can take. We are proud to welcome them into a community that is dedicated to amplifying all the ways in which a place can tell us about the artist and the work created there.”
