Join Curator of American Art at the Farnsworth Art Museum, Francesca Soriano, for Part 1 of a guided walk through the galleries to view the exhibition By Design: The Worlds of Betsy James Wyeth. The first one will focus on the Wyeth Study Center and Hadlock Galleries. Audiences can expect to get an introduction to Betsy, her creative upbringing, as well as a deep dive into her unique practice of adaptive reuse of historical buildings, the architectural design of new structures, and an eclectic collecting practice that shaped highly original interiors. The walk will last approximately 30 minutes, after which guests will have the opportunity to explore the remaining galleries independently.
