The Springfield Art Association was founded in 1913 as an art school and exhibition facility. Originally the Edwards Place home was donated to the Springfield Art Club to house the school. In the 1960s the historic house was added to the national historic register and made into a museum. Over the years the SAA has grown to a 7 acre campus that include the School of Art, Gallery of Art, and the Michael Victor II Art Library.
