Discovering Calvert Vaux
June 17, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
O, n Zoom LW! Members FREE!
Join us for this continuing journey through scenic landmark Central Park and the creative mind of one of its unheralded creators. Ron Korcak helps us get to know Vaux: the architect, the engineer, the protégé and the mentor. We’ll meet his influences (Cottingham, Truefitt, Downing) and follow his journeys. But most especially, we’ll meet the man who loved nature so much that he found a way to bring the pastoral into the city so that we could all experience its beauty and life-enhancing gifts every day.
