APP Lecture: Historic Gardens of Westchester

We invite you to step into lush, magnificently designed gardens and experience a variety of historic eras and fascinating cultures through a digital “visit” to some of Westchester’s fabulous public gardens. This 75-minute, richly illustrated presentation will include images both past and present of the restored colonial gardens at the Jay family properties, the Gilded Age property of Lyndhurst, the serenity of the Japanese Stroll Gardens in North Salem, and the impeccable Persian designs of Untermeyer Park, and more. You’ll also meet (and thank!) the architects, horticulturists, philanthropists, and visionaries that made these spaces available to the public today. Presented by Barbara Davis.

Open to APP and APP+ members only. Learn more about our Adult Program Passes!
