Ahh, the calm of Graycliff, a short drive but a world away from the stresses of the holidays. Graycliff was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright specifically for the relaxation of his patrons, Isabelle and Darwin Martin. Today, visitors can unwind with a leisurely tour, and enjoy Graycliff’s festive holiday décor amidst the magnificent architecture. Free hot chocolate (and some candy canes, too!) is served at the conclusion of tours, and Graycliff’s Pavilion gift shop has lots of choices to fix any lapses by Santa or Hanukkah Harry. You (and your out-of-town visitors) will enjoy a bit of relaxation amidst the holiday bustle.
Weather permitting, well trained docents will lead tours of the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Graycliff Estate on Wednesday, Dec. 26, Thursday, Dec. 27, Friday, Dec. 28, Saturday, December 29, Sunday, December 30, and Monday, December 31, 2012. Both Basic, one hour tours and In-Depth, two-hour tours are available each day.
Reservations are required; please call 716-947-9217 or email graycliff@verizon.net. Please see our website at graycliffestate.org for more details.
