Join us as we examine the interplay of nature and furniture. Discover an explosion of naturalistic details on historic objects, and watch contemporary craftsmen re-create motifs--from shells and flowers, to vines and leaves--that decorated early furniture. Curators and conservators will share their knowledge of fine furniture made for the home and garden, the parlor and porch. Optional workshops offered on March 24 and 27. $370; $320 Winterthur Members and professionals working for nonprofits; $250 students with valid ID; $75 per workshop
