Paine Art Center & Gardens Inc

External relations - the organization complies and distributes all information for communication to the public.

Gardens - the organization maintains, preserves, and interprets the horticultural collection. The paine estate features twenty garden areas for public enjoyment and education. In concert with the historic architecture, the garden designs create outdoor "rooms" showcasing a wide variety of plants. Like the paine mansion's rooms and galleries, the gardens are designed to create a variety of intimate and grand settings. Set against the backdrop of the mansion, the gardens showcase perennials that are especially hardy in wisconsin's climate as well as trees, shrubs and wildflowers native to the state. Displays of annuals and bulbs change each year and present new varieties and unusual combinations to inspire every level of garden enthusiast.

Education - the organization develops and administers educational and interpretive programs. Volunteer services - the organization is responsible for developing and maintaining its volunteer program. You will find our enthusiastic volunteers contributing in countless ways throughout the entire estate. Some volunteers warmly welcome guests, others participate in curatorial and archival activities, still others roll up their sleeves and go to work in our enchanting gardens.
