Join AIANY and the New York Tri-State Chapter of DOCOMOMO for a book talk on The Edith Farnsworth House: Architecture, Preservation, Culture.

Michelangelo Sabatino, the book’s author, and Alice Friedman will speak, foregrounding the role of client Edith Farnsworth. Barry Bergdoll will moderate.

For Pride Month, three historic house museums in the art and design worlds—The Glass House, the Alice Austen House, and the Demuth Museum—are coming together to discuss efforts at the forefront of the movement to landmark and celebrate significant LGBTQ sites including historic house museums, as well as explore the personal identities of LGBTQ artists.

The authors will explore the expanded and updated edition of this 2014 classic and follow with a book signing.
