Daniel Owen Stephens, son of Alice and Charles Stephens, displayed a passion for astronomy starting in his childhood. It continued through his teenage years, when his parents created an observatory above the octagonal stairway at Thunderbird Lodge, and eventually into his adult career. Initially, he studied to become a professional astronomer, but ultimately merged his astronomical insight into the translation of the visible night sky into art. The display, containing his art and literature, starts in his imaginative youth and ends with his final project, astronomical paintings for the American Museum of Natural History in New York.

Arts & Crafts pottery maker William De Morgan (1839-1917) and Pre-Raphaelite painter Eveyln De Morgan (1855-1919), a power couple, who encouraged one another’s creative pursuits and engaged in the social issues of their day, are the subject of the second tour.

He considered this Rose Valley home to be his masterpiece.
A southern picnic menu of slider sandwiches (crab cakes, fried chicken, country ham), assorted summer salads, and desserts will be served. Along with beer, cider, ice tea and lemonade, Bruce is offering selected French wines from his cellar.

The signatures on Mr. Stratton’s sketches are made in Egyptian hieroglyphics. 18 pastels will be exhibited.
