In 2005, the Sun Valley Museum of Art became the owner of one of the oldest and most historic houses in Hailey, Idaho. The birthplace of the poet Ezra Pound, the house was later the private residence of one of Hailey’s most beloved citizens, Roberta McKercher, until her death in 1996. SVMoA transformed the historic house into the Castellano-Wood Family Classroom in honor of the Sun Valley Museum of Art benefactors Benjamin Wood and Theresa Castellano-Wood. Together, the house and classroom allow SVMoA to offer classes, workshops, lectures, and performances in a location convenient to the growing population of southern Blaine County.
