Marian Coffin Symposium

This fall marks the 150th birthday of Marian Coffin, the pioneering woman of landscape architecture who designed gardens at Winterthur, Gibraltar, Mt. Cuba, the University of Delaware Green, and many others in the Delaware Valley and beyond. This also marks the 10-year anniversary of the launch of the University of Delaware’s Bachelor of Landscape Architecture program. To celebrate these milestones, Winterthur, the UD Bachelor of Landscape Architecture program, and Preservation Delaware, the non-profit that oversees the Marian Coffin Gardens at Gibraltar, have developed a two-day symposium to bring awareness to her remarkable achievements, her influence on landscapes and the relevance of the field of landscape architecture and historic garden and landscape preservation today.
