Arts and Culture, History and Heritage, Literature, Lectures, and Talks
July 30 | 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Join us for a very special Tea & Talk! Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author, Victoria Christopher Murray, co-author of The Personal Librarian, is coming to Ventfort Hall to share the story of Belle da Costa Greene, J.P. Morgan’s personal librarian with a big secret. Sarah Morgan, sister of JP Morgan, commissioned the building of Ventfort Hall in Lenox in 1891. Murray will disclose parallels and connections between her story and Ventfort Hall in her lecture. The lecture portion of this Tea & Talk will be held at Trinity Episcopal Church at 88 Walker Street, near Ventfort Hall, at 3pm. After the lecture, guests of the tea can walk or drive to Ventfort Hall for service, where Victoria Christopher Murray will be in attendance. We have several copies of The Personal Librarian for sale in our gift shop at Ventfort Hall.
