Planning for David Wright House event began in 2015

Ruth McLeod, Margaret Baker, Kay Holcombe
Meeting with our contact at the David and Gladys Wright House last November, President Margaret Baker, co-chairs Kay Holcombe and Ruth McLeod made plans for a Spring Event. After months of planning for Evening Under the Stars, the event takes place this Saturday, April 9. And it looks like the rain will stop in time for a beautiful evening which is Sold Out. The luminarias are gone but the home is fascinating. We are pleased to raise funds for National History Day www.NHDAZ.org at this event.
Students and teachers will be there to tell us about the program.
Guest speaker Canadian architect Barry
Johns will tell us about Frank Lloyd Wright who designed and built the house in 1950 for his son David and daughter-in-law Gladys. Docents will tell us about the home during informal tours. And the silent auction will feature some very usual and priceless items.
