FOHH’s signature annual open-house event, Art & Architecture Day is back! In honor of America’s 250th anniversary, cake will be served! Activities from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. include observing artists at work “en plein air” (painting outdoors), free tours of the site’s federal-period structures in the context of a carefully designed landscape, viewing art related to Huntley, and browsing and purchasing history and other non-fiction titles from FOHH’s used book sale. At an informal reception for the artists from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m., the works painted during the day will be available for public viewing and sale.
The event is free. Historic Huntley is located at 6918 Harrison Lane, Alexandria.
