Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin: A Wisconsin Treasure Osher Bus Tour and Lunch at WI Riverside Resort

Frank Lloyd Wright has been called “the greatest of the architectural pioneers of the 20th century, blazing trails and challenging men and technology to ever higher achievements.” Wright built Taliesin on his favorite boyhood hill, in the Wisconsin River valley homesteaded by his Welsh grandparents. Located in the Driftless Region of southwestern Wisconsin near Spring Green, Taliesin includes Wright’s 37,000-square-foot home, studio, school and 800-acre estate that includes buildings from nearly every decade of Wright’s career from the 1890s to the 1950s. In 1976, Taliesin was designated as a National Historic Landmark and became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2019. Lunch will be at the Wisconsin Riverside Resort, with a lovely view overlooking the Wisconsin River, and featuring a 3,000 gallon fish tank, containing local fish.

Meet at 7:15AM Bayshore Park & Ride (5725 N. Port Washington Road, Glendale) or at 8:00AM at State Fair Park & Ride (8300 W. Adler Street, Milwaukee). Tour from 10:30AM for approximately two hours, followed by lunch. Drop off at State Fair Park & Ride at 5:30PM and at Bayshore Park & Ride at 6:00PM.

Dates and locations to be announced.
