Thursday Lecture - Fallingwater: A Place for Renewal
Location: The Barn at Fallingwater
Time: 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

 The Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece, nestled within the lush, wooded Bear Run Nature Reserve, is a timeless monument to organic architecture at its absolute best. Learn how architect, client, and site came together to create a house designed for living in harmony with nature.

Please note that the lecture is not held in Fallingwater itself, but at The Barn at Fallingwater. The Barn is a late 1800’s Pennsylvania bank barn that was once part of the Kaufmann’s diary farm. Today this LEED certified building has been adapted for other uses including meeting and gathering space.

If your adding a lecture as a part of your visit to Fallingwater we suggest allowing at least three hours on site and scheduling your tour no later than 12 noon and no earlier than 3:30 pm.

Cost: $8.00 when purchased with a Fallingwater house tour; $18.00 for the lecture only.  This lecture may also be booked for groups by special arrangement.
