The Onna House in East Hampton

A visit to the Onna House is a visual delight. 

Exterior of the Onna House

This mid-century modern home, designed by Paul Lester in 1962, was acquired by Lisa Perry, the designer, collector, curator and the founder of Onna House. Perry lovingly restored the house, and it was opened to the public in May of 2022. Perry said it was similar to the home where she grew up. 

Perry’s vision is to highlight and champion women artists in a gallery/home-like setting, where visitors can relax and enjoy the visual environment.

What particularly impressed me was the wide variety of women artists who are furniture makers, ceramicists, weavers, and traditional artists represented in this exhibition. 

The landscape is magnificent. Be sure to find the moss garden tucked away near the kitchen.
