The Glories of Newport: a look into those magnificent mansions

Who says we can’t dream? This illustrated talk with art historian Mary Woodward takes us into some of the grandest rooms ever created in this country…a world away and yet so close! Fancy tea in a Chinese teahouse? Not a problem for Mrs. Alva Vanderbilt. Need a spot for 200 dinner guests? Easy, if your home is The Breakers. Join us on an armchair tour of the finest houses in America.
