In 1996 IPAT moved from Greenville Avenue in Dallas to Grapevine, Texas and
in 1998 it moved into the small home on Franklin Street. The Offices of IPAT were
moved in 2004 to a building behind the Museum.
Grapevine is one of the oldest settlements in North Texas. It originated under the
Lone Star Flag in 1844 which was one year before statehood. The settlements'
namesake was the wild mustang grapes which grew so abundantly in the area.
Today Grapevine celebrates its history with an extensive restoration project
recognized by the National Registry of Historic Places and an annual Grapefest
which is attended by over 5,000 citizens and visitors. IPAT's home is located in
the historic original township district and is one block off Main Street.
The collection of antique china in the museum, along with the addition of modern
acquisitions makes the collection a valued historical hallmark of styles through the
past 100+ years.
