The Ruthmere Foundation, Inc. owns and operates the home of Elkhart's founder, the 1848 Havilah Beardsley House, and Ruthmere, the region's premier 1910 Beaux Arts mansion. Today they stand as cornerstones of community history; architectural icons of a time gone by.
The Ruthmere Foundation, Inc. offers valuable opportunities to the community. These include significant history, elegant architecture, a world-class fine arts collection, and programs that bring stories of our community's past to life in meaningful ways. You can be a part of keeping these stories alive for many years to come.
The industry and careful stewardship of the Beardsley's led to an endowment for the community that we enjoy in many ways today: Ruthmere and its outstanding collections, including works that rival those held in much larger museums found in our nation’s major cities, are easily accessible to area residents; an Arts Reference Library; carefully tended gardens that provide a welcome respite in the city; a venue for special events and weddings ; and most importantly, strong educational programs for learners of all ages.
