Evening Explorations: "Queer Whispers in Fairyland"

  • Chesterwood 4 Williamsville Road Stockbridge, MA, 01262 United States (map)

Visit Chesterwood without the crowds for a deep dive evening tour, concluding with prosecco and conversation on the Studio Piazza. Celebrate Pride month in June with “Queer Whispers in Fairyland".” Daniel Chester French, a meticulous molder of monumental images, carefully crafted the public person which helped him become one of the most successful American sculptors of his time. Dive beneath French’s ‘straight-laced’ exterior to explore the ‘queer whispers’ he left behind for us to puzzle over.

This program is limited to 10 guests, and themes change monthly.
