Essex Library's Centerbrook Architects Lecture Series Continues

Architectural historian Dr. Chuck Benson will return to the Essex Library's 'virtual' stage on Friday, May 14th at 7 p.m. to talk about great iconic residential architecture. Benson will walk the audience through what criteria were used to come up with his list of iconic designs and why some houses you might have expected to see, were excluded. The Centerbrook Architects Lecture Series events are FREE and open to the public. Registration is required. See the Library's website at https://www.youressexlibrary.o... or call the Library at 860-767-1560 for more information or to register.

Dr. Benson has been teaching Art and Architectural History for more than twenty-five years at various universities and has led groups to explore iconic places and buildings in America, Europe, and elsewhere. His lecture credits include MOMA, Getty Museum in Los Angeles, and the
Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. He studied the history of art and architecture at Yale, and holds advanced degrees from Columbia University.
