We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization adaptively repurposed the historic Jester Farmhouse, for local artists of all disciplines and skill levels to use as meeting, working, and gallery space. Jester Artspace, Inc. partnered with the property owner, New Castle County, Delaware in 2015, to renovate the property. In turn, we now operate the house in a manner of direct benefit to the surrounding community. The Jester Farmhouse was deemed to be of significant historic value to the people of New Castle County. Its core stone walls were one of the few remaining modest pre-Civil War farmsteads that were once common in Northern Delaware. The house sits amid 30 acres of original farmland at 2818 Grubb Road, which is among the oldest colonial-era trade routes in the mid-Atlantic U.S.
