THE GAMBLE HOUSE – ARCHITECTURE AS FINE ART

The mission of The Gamble House is to inspire the public’s appreciation and understanding of architecture as a fine art through the example of The Gamble House, the most complete and best-preserved work of American Arts and Crafts architects Charles and Henry Greene.

This will be achieved by:

• Preserving The Gamble House, its furnishings, collection, and grounds to nationally-recognized standards of conservation;

• Providing an exemplary program of public access that interprets the architecture of The Gamble House, and its collections, in a relevant, educational and engaging way;

• Providing education programs that enhance the public’s understanding of The Gamble House within the context of architectural and cultural history, and;

• Pursuing a mutually supportive relationship with the City of Pasadena in the interest of meeting our mission and adhering to the 1966 family gift agreement.
