UVA Club of Washington DC: Group Tour of the Larz Anderson House
All alumni, friends, and family are invited to join the UVA Club of Washington, DC for a group tour of the Larz Anderson House. The tour lasts approximately one hour and will take you through a tour of the reception spaces across the first two floors of the Anderson House. We encourage you to wear your orange and blue! If this event is sold out, please sign up for the waitlist.
Anderson House was completed in 1905 for Larz and Isabel Anderson, an American couple who devoted their lives to public service, travel, entertaining, collecting, and philanthropy. Their interests and activities are reflected in the mansion, where much of the couple’s art collection and furnishings are still on display amidst the outstanding original architectural features. Today, Anderson House is the home of the Society of the Cincinnati and its American Revolution Institute, which works here to advance its historical mission to promote understanding and appreciation of the American Revolution and its legacy. Select art and artifacts of the Revolutionary War and the Society of the Cincinnati are also displayed in Anderson House and are featured in the changing exhibition gallery, which presents one exhibition per year exploring an aspect of the American Revolution and its legacy.
