History

Established in 1975.

The historic Queen Ann has a relaxed atmosphere with an eclectic assortment of family historic antiques, and collectibles that provide color and a sense of place. Putting Swan Levine House together was an out growth of the hospitality that came from art experiences that had this collective mentality. Seeing new art, discussions at the dining room table, large private space are all a part of the experience that allows everyone to enjoy the «salon» of past and be in the present. Part of the art that Peggy and Howard do is creating this environment.
