InsiteOnsite
Location: Fallingwater
Our new InsiteOnsite at Fallingwater provides a rare opportunity for adults who seek a new perspective on arts and architecture.  The three-day seminar engages the mind, body and spirit while allowing participants to contemplate and experience a masterpiece.

Insight Onsite combines quiet exploration, group inquiry exercises and lively mealtime discussions to provide participants with a unique understanding of modern architecture from physical, psychological, and historical perspectives.

Participants will join Lynda Waggoner, Director of Fallingwater, and Fallingwater’s curators for this unique experience which is being offered on the following dates:

  • Tuesday, July 14 at 4 p.m. through Thursday, July 16 at 1 p.m.
  • Tuesday, September 15 at 4 p.m. through Thursday, September 17 at 1 p.m.
  • Tuesday, November 3 at 4 p.m. through Thursday, November 5 at 1 p.m.

Interested parties may now make reservations to any one of the three-day seminars. Because this program is intended to help a small group focus on personal inquiry, Insight Onsite at Fallingwater is limited to eight people per session. The pricing for this all-inclusive experience is $1195 per person for double occupancy and $1595 for single occupancy. Guests will reside in simple on-site housing at Bear Run Nature Reserve – the 5,000-acre natural area that is home to Fallingwater – in a house that includes four bedrooms, each with a private bath.

Seminar activities include:

  • A silent walk to Fallingwater and time to explore the house on one’s own
  • Discussion and inquiry exercises designed to deepen participants’ understanding of and appreciation for the house and its setting
  • Dinner with Fallingwater’s director and curator in Fallingwater’s living room or on one of Fallingwater’s terraces (weather permitting)
  • Conversations about art, architecture and other topics with special guests
  • An in-depth tour of Fallingwater
