Vintage Valentines tour of Carrick Hill: Interiors and Art Collection
Event Information
About this Event
Celebrate the reopening of the house and join me on this tour through Carrick Hill, where we will be focussing on the house interior as a reflection of the Haywards’ dual identities as both British and Australian, and how this shaped their remarkable art collection. More than biography, or social history, this tour involves a room by room exploration of the décor and the collection to understand gracious living Hayward style.
Inspired by Ursula Hayward's black Dior cocktail dress, c. 1950 we're going to invite you to don a vintage clothing item/s from any decade from the 1940s to the 1970s; with a surprise gift at the end for the best-dressed!
Please note the cost of the ticket for the tour includes house entry and access to the current exhibition 'Collecting: A Personal View' in the upstairs gallery.
