Arthur Griffin Foundation

The Foundation was established by renowned photographer and Winchester resident Arthur Griffin to provide scholarships for young visual artists and grants to preserve and enhance the beauty of the Winchester Community. For seventy years, Arthur Griffin (1903–2001) strolled and studied the streets and paths of Winchester, his beloved adopted hometown. Here, the renowned photographer captured the spirit of New England in the brick, foliage, and sunsets of an iconic Massachusetts town.
