Description

The Jekyll Island Arts Association (JIAA) is a non-profit membership organization interested in enjoying and promoting the arts -- painting, sculpture, wood carving, music, drama, photography, pottery, weaving, needlework and ceramics. We have the use of and maintain Goodyear Cottage in the Jekyll Island Historic District where we provide free to the public monthly exhibits in the gallery. Monthly programs on topics in varied artistic disciplines are presented in other venues.

The Association maintains and staffs a gift shop in Goodyear Cottage with the work of members displayed on consignment. Consignees must be members and are expected to assist in manning the shop. See the 'Goodyear Shop' page for more information.

History

The home, completed in 1906, included features like engaged columns, sidelights for the doorway, and casement windows. Italian style, including the use of tile, was used in the design of the house. Frank Henry Goodyear of Buffalo, New York owned the home but died in 1907, a year after it was completed, however his family used it for years to come. It is located in the Jekyll Island Club Historic District at 321 Riverview Drive, next to the Moss Cottage.
