More About The Merritt: Masterwork of Design and Planning Opening Reception and Lecture

The Merritt Parkway is one of 20th-century America's most significant achievements in public architecture, planning, engineering, and landscape design, conceived and built by visionaries during the heyday of American motoring. Arianne Kolb, Executive Director of the Merritt Parkway Conservancy, will discuss the history of the Merritt Parkway's complex design and the Conservancy’s role in preserving Connecticut’s iconic landmark for the enjoyment of future generations. We are pleased to present this program and its accompanying exhibition in the Lightburn Gallery in recognition of America 250.
