Frank Lloyd Wright came to Arizona in the 1920s to assist with the design of the Arizona Biltmore, and stayed to work on other projects.  Beginning in 1938, he built his winter camp (a home and professional studio) at the foot of the McDowell Mountains in Scottsdale, and commenced the most productive and creatively fertile period of his long career.  In this presentation, we’ll explore how the desert inspired Wright and can inspire us the same way today, to live more gracefully with the landscape as part of the world around us.       

Presenter: Stuart Graff, President/COO, Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation
