Hillwood’s mission is to delight and engage visitors with an experience inspired by the life of our founder Marjorie Merriweather Post and her passion for excellence, gracious hospitality, art, history and gardens.

Our mandate is to preserve the estate, museum and gardens that Marjorie Post developed to house her important collection and present them for the enjoyment of the public.

Marjorie Merriweather Post had extremely high standards for the design, appearance, and condition of her property and a signature style for making people feel welcome in her home.

These are the benchmarks to which Hillwood Staff adhere in all we do.
