Some consider Frank Lloyd Wright to be the greatest American architect, and some of his finest work is preserved here in the Laurel Highlands. During this Road Scholar program, you will explore the inner workings of Fallingwater—Wright’s essay on the harmony between architecture and nature—as well as Kentuck Knob and Duncan House.

In addition to the guided tours of these three Frank Lloyd Wright homes, you will enjoy a series of lectures, presentations and workshops that will give you even greater in-depth knowledge of Mr. Wright and his revolutionary contributions to modern architecture.

Note: This program is facilitated by Fallingwater staff
