At Home In The Garden with Carolyne Roehm
April 20, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
$25A special spring lecture & book signing
The lecture will be held from 10am – 11:30am followed by a book signing.
Carolyne Roehm will visually take us through her exquisite gardens at her 59-acre Sharon, CT estate, Weatherstone, featuring images from her newly published book At Home in the Garden. Step into Carolyne’s world as she shares personal reflections about her extraordinary life and the humbling effects of nature. Using her own photographs and watercolors to transport us, Carolyne reveals her personal ode to beauty–the picturesque cutting, orchard, vegetable, shade and topiary gardens. All combined, they reflect an atmosphere of happiness and beauty while offering us inspiration for our own gardens.
Style icon and lifestyle maven Carolyne Roehm has been part of American design culture for over four decades. With a career spanning the fashion, gardening, entertaining, publishing and decorative arts worlds, Carolyne’s energy in seeking out the next challenge knows no bounds.
Finding a mentor in Oscar de la Renta, Carolyne worked alongside the couture great for 10 years before launching her own fashion house in 1985. A discerning eye and passion for beauty lead her into the world of flowers, where her books are often referred to as the best in their field. Subsequent entertaining and interiors titles cemented her position as one of America’s lifestyle experts.
Now the author of twelve books, Roehm’s mission is to teach others how to capture and create beauty in their lives, in both the everyday and out of the ordinary. According to Oprah Winfrey, “She’s a diva, she’s the master, she’s my mentor.”
Additional copies of At Home In the Garden will be available for purchase the day of the lecture for $55 by cash or check.
