MISSION: The mission of the
Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site is to increase public understanding
of, appreciation for, and participation in the American system of
self government through the life stories, arts and culture of an American President.
VISION: The vision of the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site is the renewal and reinvigoration of the mutual covenant between those who govern and those who are governed, which is at the heart of the American Experiment in self-government.
PURPOSE: The Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site, a not for profit, tax-exempt organization, is
dedicated to maintaining and preserving the President Benjamin Harrison Home as a museum and memorial to the only President of the United
States elected from the State of Indiana. Open to the public as
an educational and historical service, the museum seeks to promote
patriotism and citizenship through appropriate educational activities
and by artfully exhibiting the Victorian time period as Harrison
and his
family might have experienced it.
