In conjunction with the upcoming exhibition connecting the Telfair and New York, the Friends of the Owens-Thomas House are hosting a trip to the Hudson River Valley the week of June 10, 2013.
The trip will include visits to public and private homes, including early neoclassical houses such as Boscobel, known for its fantastic furniture collection; and, Montgomery Place, a Federal home later altered by Alexander Jackson Davis.
Other houses on the tour will include Wilderstein, a Queen Anne-style country house decorated in the aesthetic movement style using materials such as mahogany, leather, and stained glass; Olana, the Moorish-style home of artist Frederick Edwin Church with 360 degree views of the Hudson River Valley; the Rockefellor’s Kykuit Complex; Lyndhurst, a Gothic Revival country house on the river designed by A. J. Davis; and Cedar Grove, the home of artist Thomas Cole.
