The landscape tour is a 90-minute experience that focuses on the history and restoration of Graycliff’s historic gardens and grounds. It includes the first floor of the main house, designed by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
Wright created the initial design of the landscape, and you’ll hear about the important additional designs of Ellen Biddle Shipman, a pioneering Arts and Crafts landscape designer whose classic garden designs are known throughout the country.
The tour is led by a docent who has specialized knowledge related to the plant life on the property.
Tickets are $35 the public and $20 for students. Graycliff members also save (login online for benefits, or call Graycliff staff at 716-947-9217).
