Families can tour Frank Lloyd Wright's Oak Park Home for free at an upcoming holiday event hosted by the Frank Lloyd Wright Trust.
The event, called "Home for the Holidays," features a tree decorated with traditional German glass ornaments, poinsettias, fresh flowers, evergreens and wreaths, according to the Trust's event page. The decorations follow the Wright family's own holiday traditions. Registration is required but admission is free. The event page does not list a specific date or time.
The Trust's event page describes holidays at the home through the eyes of Wright's son John Lloyd Wright, who recalled a tree in the playroom "fully trimmed and surrounded by gifts." The page also notes handmade cards by Wright's sister Maginel and stockings hung from the mantel.
In the Drafting Room, the Trust's Education Team will lead an ornament-making activity for all ages. Guests can create snowflakes or origami holiday trees to take home.
The Museum Shop will be open for holiday gift browsing, with hot chocolate and holiday cookies available.
Residents can find registration details on the Trust's event page.
