Artisan's House is a historic home located at Annapolis, Maryland, United States. It is a 1+1⁄2-story frame house on a brick foundation representative of modest middle class dwellings of the 18th century. It was likely used as a barracks during the Revolutionary War. Because of this, it is also known as "Hogshead."[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973,[1] and it is a contributing property in the Colonial Annapolis Historic District.

Hogshead is owned by the Historic Annapolis Foundation and operated as an 18th-century period historic house museum with Colonial-era re-enactors.
