The Lyme Historical Society maintains a museum named for Miss Florence Griswold on Lyme Street in Old Lyme. Here one can see a good deal of these towns through the eyes of both Barbizon and Impressionist artists. The Lyme Art Association, located next door, has frequent shows where contemporary flat art and sculpture are displayed. Also nearby, housed in one of the finest old homes in the area, is the Lyme Academy of Fine Art, a year round art school. All three organizations welcome visitors.
Nearby inns offer accommodations and gracious dining.
