Sounds of America Gallery (Foster Memorial)
This house was originally located in Lawrenceville, Pennsylvania, the town where composer Stephen Foster was born. When it was brought to Greenfield Village in 1934, the home was thought to be Foster's birthplace. Now called The Sounds of America Gallery, it houses a display of musical instruments.
