Upcoming Events!

Enjoy an Arizona Sunset at Taliesin West on February 20
Thinking about a sun/golf break to escape winter?  Arrange your schedule to join an exclusive group of Gordon House friends for an escape to the sunny climes and breathtaking desert views of Scottsdale, Arizona and Taliesin West on February 20.  Meet GH and Wright fans on the TW terrace for fine wine and hors d'oeuvres at a sunset soirée at 5:30 p.m. after a private guided tour at 4 p.m. 

$350 per person benefits the GH and TW.  Golf in the morning and dinner at the Arizona Biltmore can be added to your escape itinerary.  We have a list of suggested lodging, and other architectural site visits are being arranged just for us. .  .   details are forthcoming.

You may purchase your tickets easily on the left of this page through the secure PayPal button or call the GH at 503/874-6006 to make your reservations today.  This is a great way to spend a few days or more with friends basking in the light of Frank Lloyd Wright.

Poets to Meet at the Gordon House on April 10
Frank Lloyd Wright designed his buildings to inspire the literary, musical, and visual arts.  Conrad and Evelyn Gordon were patrons of the arts as well.  Their home is the perfect venue for poetry readings and discussions that will be part of the 2010 Silverton Poetry Festival.

The Tenth Annual Poetry Festival opens and celebrates National Poetry Month at the Gordon House on April 10 at 7 p.m.  FREE to the public with refreshments and books for sale and signing.  More information at www.silvertonpoetry.org

Mother’s Day Tea Luncheon on May 8
Celebrate Mother’s Day by enjoying tea, lunch, music, and a guided tour of the Gordon House on Sunday, May 8 at 12 noon.
Frank Lloyd Wright’s mother Anna Lloyd provided the inspiration and guidance that began his long successful career in architectural design and innovation.

It is our pleasure to honor Anna and all mothers for the life-long encouragement they give.  Each mother and grandmother will receive a special remembrance gift.  What a wonderful way to thank them for all that they do!
Reservations are necessary.  $35 per person or $30 for members and their guests.  Gift certificates and group rates are available.  Call 503/874-6006 to make your reservations with a charge card.

Contemporary Glass Art Show & Sale June 5 - July 5
We invite you to enjoy glass nfluenced by the design and sensibility of modern organic architecture and the abstraction of nature.  Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Gordon House to be in communion with the natural surroundings of its siting.  Wright’s architecture always strived to blur the line between the inside and the outside environments; in effect to see through to the other side.

 

The glass art show and sale will be on display at the Gordon House from June 5 through July 5.  The public is also invited to join the artists at a reception on June 12 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the house.  The artists will discuss their work at 7 p.m.  The evening event honors the artists and their work, is free to the public, and provides an opportunity for discussions about these unique interpretations of geometry, texture, and color using fine art glass methods and materials.

 

The show is sponsored by the Oregon State University Craft Center Guild of Fused, Torch Work, and Stained Glass Artists from the Corvallis area of the Mid-Willamette Valley.  Fourteen glass artists will be represented.  The artwork complements and contrasts with the floor-to-ceiling window doors surrounding the living room space.


Wright’s Birthday Celebration on June 19
Plan to visit the Gordon House to celebrate and commemorate Frank Lloyd Wright’s birthday month.  You’re invited to tour and enjoy his only building in Oregon, an example of what Wright would later call the only truly American architectural style.  Open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. 
Birthday entry fee for the house is $2 per person or free for members.  Childrens building supplies are available to stimulate and develop young minds.

Don't forget to take a walk around the house through the restored white oak savannah in a parklike setting.  You can enjoy an exciting view of the house from every direction surrounded by a developing native landscape.






We missed you at A Taste of Wright 2009, our annual fundraiser.
Hope to see you on August 1, 2010!
Take a look at the fun we had .  .  .    .
