Termed “America’s Museum,” the Butler Institute is devoted to celebrating America’s visual arts heritage. Founded in 1919, the Butler is one of the earliest museums dedicated exclusively to collecting, exhibiting, and preserving the art of America’s past, present, and future. The Butler’s collection is one of America’s treasures and is known and admired throughout the world.

Greystone, the magnificent 1905 Arts & Crafts-style residence of Wilford and Olive F. A. Arms, is preserved a century later as the Arms Family Museum of Local History. The first floor of this historical home features original period rooms that highlight the Arms’ love of handicraft, medieval architecture and the natural environment.

The lower level and second floor showcase a complete history of life in the Mahoning Valley, from the earliest evidence of human habitation in Mahoning County to yesterday’s fads.
