"...you’d
think that everyone would know about Reynolda, but so far it’s flown a bit under the radar, by design. Genteel Southern discretion and all. No more: Barbara Babcock Millhouse, the founding director of the museum and the granddaughter of tobacco titan R.J. Reynolds, is turning up the dial on Reynolda’s public profile."
— Ted Loos, "A Grand North Carolina Mansion with a Trove of American Art," Introspective Magazine
Reynolda's legacy and future is big news in its 100th year! Check out this recent profile from Introspective Magazine featuring an interview from our founding president, Barbara Babcock Millhouse.

315 gallons! That's how much paint was used to cover Reynolda House's exterior (green shutters included). Congratulations to our winner Robin T., who came the closest with a guess of 317. Thanks to all those who participated and we can't wait to have you over this summer to see our freshly painted exterior!
