There are no display cases. Instead, the house has been restored with furniture and objects of the simple life which characterized the Great Depression and the New Deal. The home also includes objects associated with everyday life of a middle-class family during these years such as Fiesta ware and depression glass dishware, kitchen utensils, children's toys, clothes, and linens. The walls are hung with original architectural renderings and artwork of Greenbelt created by New Deal artists and architects. Permanent exhibits are of historic and artistic interest.
Temporary exhibits focus on specialized aspects of life during that time.
