An Afternoon with Frank Lloyd Wright* Saturday, October 11, 1:00-3:00 pm Join Friends of Cedar Rock at the Independence Public Library for An Afternoon with Frank Lloyd Wright, featuring Benjamin Hunnicutt, University of Iowa Professor Emeritus. In his talk, Where the River Meets the Horizon: The Walter House and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Forgotten Vision of Freedom, Hunnicutt reflects on architecture, leisure, and the meaning of creation in an age shaped by AI. Through the lens of the Walter House, he explores Wright’s vision of a life grounded not in work or consumption, but in beauty, community, and the joy of making a home. *Tickets are required and can be purchased for $10 here: http://www.friendsofcedarrock.org/store or at the door.
