Join us May 17-18, 2014 for the Frank Lloyd Wright
Trust’s All Wright Architectural Housewalk. The 40th annual Wright Plus
Housewalk is All Wright in 2014, marking the 125th anniversary of the
Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio and the 40th
anniversary of the Trust.
For the first time in 15 years, the Housewalk
will feature rare interior tours of private homes and public buildings
all designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in his Oak Park Studio. At each
house, guides will talk about the original owners,
design details and restoration. Featured residences include:
- Rollin Furbeck House (1897)
- William G. Fricke House (1901)
- Arthur B. Heurtley House (1902)
- William E. Martin House (1903)
- Peter A. Beachy House (1906)
- Edward R. Hills-DeCaro House (1906)
- Isabel Roberts House (1908/1956)
- Isidore H. Heller House (1897) *OPEN SUNDAY ONLY*
Another stop on the tour is the place where these
innovative homes were conceived: Frank Lloyd Wright’s Home and Studio, the oldest Wright building open as a public museum. Other public sites on the Housewalk – Unity Temple and Frederick C.Robie House – were also designed in Wright’s Oak
Park studio.
For those looking to extend the experience, the Ultimate Plus Weekend Package offers six exclusive events in one long weekend, including preferred admission to each site on the May 17 Housewalk, hotel accommodations and transportation. Ultimate Plus runs May 15-18, 2014.
