About
Interested in history, great architecture and nature? Enjoy the beauty of the lake-side setting and an architectural masterpiece-become a docent or volunteer at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Graycliff. And its close, too---just a brief 20 minute drive south from Buffalo.
Graycliff Docent Training 2016 will begin on Saturday, April 2 nd and continue on Saturday mornings at 9:30 am through May 21 st. Graycliff Docents guide tours for visitors from throughout WNY, across the country and around the globe.
Educational sessions will be held at Graycliff, and offer a wonderful opportunity to learn about Wright’s Organic architecture and Buffalo history; to meet others fascinated by Wright’s architecture; and learn to lead tours that we are regularly told are the most highly regarded of any Wright property nationally.
Sessions will include discussions, readings, guest speakers, presentations available only for docents-in-training, hands-on practice and a field trip or two.
Please contact us at Graycliff@verizon.net or 716-947-9217 if you would like to help Frank Lloyd Wright’s "Jewel on the Lake" to flourish, and join our happy team.
