About Us

The home of James and Katharine Boyd is now the Weymouth Center for the Arts & Humanities, a cultural center dedicated to conserving the remaining 26 acre estate as a natural preserve and park, including the formal gardens designed by Alfred Yeomans, and the longleaf pine forest. The Boyd house, a 9,000 sf Georgian mansion, still serves as a writers residency, the site of poetry readings, dramatic performances, music concerts and recitals. James Boyd’s study is the home of the North Carolina Literary Hall of Fame, established in 1996.
