About
“On Christmas Morning we would run eagerly to the playroom fireplace where we had hung our stockings the night before. They were always filled with candy, spiced cakes, cookies, and surprise packages.”
- John Lloyd Wright
Wright’s son John recalled family holidays at the Oak Park Home – a tree in the playroom fully trimmed and surrounded by gifts, handmade cards by Wright’s sister Maginel, and stockings hung from the mantel, "the day flew by in its festive noise, everyone full of smiles."
You are invited to join the Frank Lloyd Wright Trust for a celebration of the season. Bring your family and friends for a free tour of Wright’s Oak Park Home, decked for the holidays with a spectacular tree decorated with traditional German glass ornaments, poinsettias, fresh flowers, evergreens and wreaths in keeping with the Wright family tradition.
Join the Trust’s Education Team for an ornament making activity in Wright’s Drafting Room! Inspired by Wright’s love for nature and geometry, guests of all ages will create snowflakes or origami holiday trees to take home and enjoy.
Stop by the Museum Shop and browse holiday gift offerings while enjoying a cup of hot chocolate and holidays cookies. Can’t make it to Oak Park? Visit the Robie House Museum Shop in Chicago instead.
