About
The Arts Council Galleries are located in Campbell House at 482 East Connecticut Avenue in Southern Pines.
The core of Campbell House was once part of the original Boyd mansion that was located 100 feet in front of the present-day Weymouth Center. The older house had belonged to James Boyd, Sr., a Pennsylvania steel & railroad magnate, who brought his family to Southern Pines in 1904. After fire damaged the older structure in the early 1920s, a section of the house was pulled across the street by a team of mules to become the home of Mr. Boyd’s grandson, Jackson Boyd.
In 1946, Mr. & Mrs. W.D. Campbell purchased the property, making extensive changes. In 1966, the Campbell family gave the property to the town, asking that it be used for cultural & social enrichment of the community. True to their wishes, Campbell House continues to be fully utilized by the Arts Council of Moore County, Southern Pines Parks & Recreation, Boy Scouts, Southern Pines Garden Club, & other organizations.
