Frank Lloyd Wright's Legacy in San Diego

Cost: Free
Frank Lloyd Wright’s Legacy in San Diego: The Taliesin Apprentices. Noted architectural historian Keith York will discuss and show slides of Frank Lloyd Wright’s impact on San Diego architecture – joined by Wright apprentice Bill Slatton.
Though urban legends persist to the contrary, Frank Lloyd Wright did not build a project in San Diego County. What does exist here are buildings by Wright’s sons, apprentices. and disciples who moved to the region and spread his ideals across a number of projects from the 1940s on. As a follow-on to the successful exhibition at La Jolla Historical Society, curator, and historian Keith York will interview Wright apprentice Bill Slatton and share the history of Wright’s influence in San Diego.
