    • Mission

    The Jay Heritage Center's (JHC) mission is to preserve, protect and interpret the National Historic Landmark Jay Estate as an educational center and community resource.

    About Us

    The Jay Heritage Center, is a not-for-profit organization located in Rye, NY that owns and manages the historic 23-acre Jay Estate through a public/private partnership with New York State Parks and Westchester County Parks.

    Our goal, as an educational center and heritage tourism destination, is to share with the public the stories of the inhabitants of the property and illustrate the ongoing preservation process of the buildings and grounds incorporating sustainable solutions (like our geothermal heating and cooling system and conservation of energy.) We offer a full calendar of programs about American History, Architecture, Social Justice and Environmental Stewardship.

    We are a member site of the Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area for our themes of Architecture, Environment and Freedom and Dignity. We are also listed on New York State's Path Through History as an important place to study the history of Civil Rights in America because of the Jay family's efforts to abolish slavery.
