October 19th Rosenbach Museum & Library Tour

Interested in a fun, educational outing right in your own back yard? Join us for a house/library tour and a wine-and-cheese party, at one of Philadelphia's hidden treasures, the Rosenbach Museum and Library. Not only is the library's collection unique, eclectic, and impressive, but so is its history. In addition, the Rosenbach is home to an extensive collection of the artwork, memorabilia, and personal collections of children's book author/illustrator Maurice Sendak.

The current Sendak exhibition, "There's a Mystery There," is described by the Philadelphia Inquirer as a "splendidly evocative exhibition" that is created in a way that appeals to both children and adults. The exhibition will later travel to three other museums.

In keeping with our library theme, we are fortunate that Tony Corallo, Vice President of Facilities at Lehigh, will join us. Tony will speak to the Club about the recent Linderman Library renovations, which marry the best of the old and the new.

For any questions, please e-mail Mike Glasheen '67 (MGlasheen@McCarter.com).
