Built in 1851 and home to Ernest Hemingway for more than ten years (starting in 1931), this house in Key West, Florida, is now open to the public as a Hemingway museum and bookstore. Today, the estate still remains to be the single largest residential property on the island of Key West. Guided tours of the house and gardens are available.
Founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational center for poetry and the arts, the Frost Place is located in the farmhouse where poet Robert Frost and his family lived full-time from 1915 to 1920 and spent nineteen summers. It sponsors writing intensives and poetry seminars, an annual summer residency given to an emerging American poet, the Conference on Poetry and Teaching, and the annual Festival and Conference on Poetry for writers seeking classes and workshops with a faculty of illustrious poets, a teachers’ conference, and an advanced seminar.
