About Thurber House Incorporated

Founded in 1984, Thurber House is a nonprofit literary arts hub, James Thurber museum, historic landmark, and gathering place for readers, writers, and artists of all ages. We are based in the restored 1873 home of humorist, cartoonist, author, playwright, and journalist James Thurber, widely considered one of the foremost American humorists of the 20th century. Thurber House programs include the Thurber Prize for American Humor, one of the highest recognitions of humor writing and cartooning in the United States; creative workshops for children, teens, and adults; author events featuring nationally known and local authors; social events for book lovers; writer residencies for writers of adult and children's literature; and a historic home museum of James Thurber memorabilia.
