Sobre Nós
In 1979, Edward Gorey purchased the 200-year-old sea captain’s home at 8 Strawberry Lane on the Yarmouth Port Common on Cape Cod, MA. After his death in 2000 the house became a museum, dedicated to Gorey’s life and work and his devotion to animal welfare. Instrumental in establishing the House were the Highland Street Foundation of Newton, MA who provided funding for the purchase and renovation of the House, and the Edward Gorey Charitable Trust of New York who provide long-term loans of works and ephemera to the House. The House and its annual Gorey exhibits are open to the public from early April through December.
