Before it became the only National Park for the Performing Arts, this area was once known as Wolf Trap Farm. The farm and land were purchased by Catherine Filene Shouse in 1930. Catherine and her husband Jouet made this into their family's country home, retreat, and a working farm and it now serves as the administrative headquarters for park staff.
