Event Description:
Many museums are celebrating the sesquicentennial anniversary of Wright's birth; June 8, 1867, so it is with pride and no little surprise to discover Marion and perhaps even our old Methodist church-building has a connection to the great architect! A local family relative, Mary C. Rogers, has donated a photo of Frank Lloyd Wright father. The studio card is stamped Hawkeye Studio Marion, Iowa ca.1890. Pastor Wright was a self-taught composer and a music teacher. Rogers also donated a CD of Wright's musical compositions recently recorded and produced by David Patterson, a 19th century music expert. We'll be playing the music and have the photo on display in the lobby the rest of the year to join in the Frank Lloyd Wright #150 celebration. Wed.-Sun. 1 to 4pm. Admission is free courtesy of a grant from the McIntyre Foundation of Cedar Rapids.
Directions:
Find us at 590th 10th Street, on the corner of 10th Street and 6th Ave UpTown Marion, IA.
