Virtual Volunteer Lecture: Second Floor Gallery: Understanding Post’s Legacy

When

April 1, 2024    
10:00 am - 11:00 am

The Russian Sacred Arts Gallery opened in the mansion in 2014. After ten years, it is time for a refresh. Join Deputy Director and Chief Curator Wilfried Zeisler for an overview of the newly designed Second Floor Gallery: Understanding Post’s Legacy, scheduled to open to the public in late March. The gallery will feature new displays and a new storyline inspired by Hillwood’s new publication, The Houses and Collections of Marjorie Merriweather Post: The Joy of It. The updated second floor gallery will explore the history of Hillwood’s collection amassed by founder Marjorie Post and developed by the museum since its opening to the public on July 11, 1977.

A Zoom link with the meeting instructions will be emailed closer to the program date.
