As one of the South’s oldest public art museums, the Telfair Museums encompasses three unique sites: the Telfair Academy, the Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters, and the Jepson Center. Together, they offer a comprehensive look at art, history, and architecture. The Telfair Academy, housed in a Regency-style mansion, showcases 19th- and 20th-century American and European art. The Owens-Thomas House provides insight into the lives of both the wealthy and enslaved people of the era, while the Jepson Center focuses on contemporary art and interactive exhibits.
