CAC Live: What House Museums Tell Us

Ranging from Federal to Modernist, from famous to obscure, house museums preserve and reflect the taste and influence of those who built and lived in them. They also play an important, if overlooked, role in our interpretation of history and architectural eras. This presentation by museum expert and CAC Education Facilitator Paul Neumann looks at a broad array of house museums across the United States including the Pabst Mansion, Glass House and Hearst Castle, along with Chicago’s own Glessner House and The Richard H. Driehaus Museum.
