Event Description:
Six-time Emmy-Award-winning documentary filmmaker Karyl Evans has combined her two greatest professional interests ? landscape architecture and filmmaking ? to create “The Life and Gardens of Beatrix Farrand”. Join us at Blithewold Mansion for this breathtaking documentary chronicling Farrand’s 50-year career as a landscape architect during the first half of the 20th century. Some of the gardens Evans chronicled for the film include: the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Garden in Seal Harbor, Maine, Dumbarton Oaks in Washington, D.C., the East Garden at the White House, the Rose Garden at the New York Botanical Garden, and Farrand’s campus work at Yale and Princeton Universities, as well as three significant Connecticut gardens. This film also includes over 500 garden photographs, rare archival images, and interviews with Farrand scholar Diana Balmori, landscape historian Judith Tankard, and landscape architect Shavaun Towers. The documentary is a splendid overview of Farrand’s stunning gardens, her pioneering innovations on college campuses, and her ingenious design philosophy, which has stood the test of time. Refreshments will be served. Members $25, Nonmembers $35
