The Hayes Mansion is a lovely Mediterranean Villa which is now run as a convention center. The 62 room, 4100 square foot mansion was built in 1905 by E.A. and J.O. Hayes, publishers of the San Jose Mercury and San Jose Herald newspapers, and their families. We will paint from the Edenvale Gardens Regional Park which has excellent views of the mansion. The park used to be part of the grounds of the mansion and in the 1960s and 1970s was the site of Frontier Village.
