Gardens of the Gilded Age Tea and Talk

Step back into America’s golden era with acclaimed author Jana Milbocker as she presents her newest book, Gardens of the Gilded Age. In this richly illustrated talk, Jana explores the stories of these breathtaking estates and legendary landscapes created for families such as the Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, du Ponts, and our very own Van Wickles and McKees, alongside the visionary architects and designers who brought their grandeur to life. Blithewold is one of the thirty gorgeous Gilded Age estates profiled in the book.

Immediately following the talk, you’ll have a chance to meet the author for a book signing before heading to the Dining Room for your Afternoon Tea.
