Amherst Historical Society Strong House Painting

The Amherst Historical Society requests $25,000 to paint the Simeon Strong House. It was partially painted in 2010 with the majority of the work done by a University of Massachusetts fraternity. The job was not completed and the level of paint application varied leaving us with a building substantially in need of professional painting. We have areas of paint failure and areas not painted in more than 20 years. We need to stop the deterioration of the underlying wood substrates and improve the overall appearance by using the paint to better define the architectural features. It is our goal to bring the Simeon Strong House into excellent repair and then to maintain it on a regular schedule. Painting the entire building will allow us to begin regular maintenance. All work will comply with the Secretary of Interior Standards for Rehabilitation.
