Ludwig Mies van der Rohe designed this glass and steel house located along the Fox River in Plano, Illinois, for Dr. Edith Farnsworth in 1946, as a weekend retreat and a place to entertain and enjoy nature.

The Presentation begins promptly at 7 pm.
Doors open at 6:30 to enjoy light refreshments prior to the presentation.
