Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library welcomes visitors back to its stunning house and galleries. The re-opening started Oct. 1. A schedule of exciting events and exhibitions enhances the beautiful outdoor experience visitors have enjoyed through the spring and summer. In the galleries, Winterthurs Lady of the House, Ruth Wales du Pont explores her life as wife of Henry Francis du Pont, who established the museum in their former home. The exhibition will examine her roles as a social figure, a talented musician, and hostess of four houses and will include a stunning re-creation of her wedding gown. Re-Vision 20/20: Through a Womans Lens takes an insightful journey into objects from the collections as viewed through the lens of womens history. Objects from the online exhibit Re-Presenting Black Womanhood, curated by graduate students from the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture and University of Delaware, consider the histories and experiences indicated by representations of Black women over time. Guests will also be able to explore the fabulous fifth floor of the museum on their own, self-guided tours. A smartphone app is available for use in the museum and galleries.
