In celebration of our spring exhibition One Object, Many Stories we are excited to host a conversation with Geoffrey Berwind, grandson of Nat and Rose Rubinson. The Rubinson’s 30 year friendship with Esherick resulted in a household’s worth of unique commissions filling their family home – including Esherick’s very first music stand. We’ll hear from Geoffrey about everything from his memories of Rose playing cello on Sunday afternoons to the piano that never was, and how he sees the music stand’s return to the Studio as a “homecoming” for this iconic work of art.
We’re delighted to host Geoffrey, a professional storyteller and member of WEM’s Board of Directors, for this talk; Geoffrey’s generosity has made the exhibition of the music stand and its return to the Studio possible. We hope you‘ll join us to hear more about his personal connection to the site and the spirited role his family played in Esherick’s story!
