The Nichols House Museum on Boston’s historic Beacon Hill was home to an early 20th-century family of artists and social activists. Preserved as a museum by Rose Standish Nichols, a pioneering woman landscape architect, the 1804 townhouse is furnished with an original collection, including pieces created by Rose and her sister Margaret. Rose was an embroiderer and woodcarver, whose historically-inspired designs enlivened her living spaces. Margaret was a furniture maker, designing and building pieces for her family, as well as for her business, Pegleggers. Both were inspired by the ideals of the Arts and Crafts Movement, combining their love of craft with their efforts to build a better world.

The Nichols House Museum fosters curiosity, creativity, and change-making, inspired by the trailblazing work and legacy of the Nichols sisters. Visitors are welcome for tours, programs, and special events throughout the year.

These pieces address the hidden potential beneath the surface of our day-to-day systems of care, labor, and relationships. Wohl uses the material’s softness to communicate a quiet revolution against exploitation and oppression.
