About this venue

The A&H’s Maitland Art Center, originally known as the Research Studio, was founded in 1937 by visionary artist and architect J. André Smith. The center was originally a winter artist’s colony, dedicated to fostering an exploratory approach to modern art. The hundreds of original sculptural elements that adorn the structures were hand-carved by André Smith and his associates, and the center remains one of the few surviving examples of Mayan Revival architecture in the southeastern United States.

    The grounds were absolutely stunning backdrop for our fairytale wedding. The availability of different spaces to use during the event was such a nice way to hold the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception at the same location but with a different gorgeous view for each. There are so many beautiful buildings and artwork around. Paola was easy to work with and we were able to purchase extra time to set up. The only negative is that two museum employees walked through our reception stations (in sweats, while it was a black tie affair) then proceeded to sit on the steps to eat. We highly recommend The Art & History Museums of Maitland.
