Trip to Kykuit in the Fall - colorOn October 1, we shall visit Kykuit, the hilltop paradise home to four generations of Rockefellers, now a site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. A docent-led tour will take us through the main rooms, terraced gardens, coach barn with its antique carriages and the unique art and sculpture collection. We will learn about the Rockefeller family and its many contributions to our society. Kykuit is a preeminent Hudson Valley landmark. For architecture, remarkable gardens, art, history, and spectacular scenery, a trip to Kykuit is simply amazing.

A multi-course lunch will be enjoyed at the Sweet Grass Restaurant in Tarrytown after which we will visit the Union Church of Pocantico Hills where we will view nine windows by Marc Chagall and a stained glass window by Henri Matisse.

The bus will leave from Temple Emeth in Teaneck at 9:30 am.
