This virtual event will feature Janine Boldt\, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Postdoctoral Curatorial Fellow at the American Philosophical Society. \nIn 1755\, traveling artist John Wollaston arrived in Virginia where he painted some of the most prominent families in the colony. One of the plantation homes he visited was the newly constructed Wilton\, where he painted a group of portraits for William Randolph III. Using the Randolph family collection as a case study\, this lecture will discuss the business of portrait painting in colonial Virginia and how to use Colonial Virginia Portraits (colonialvirginiaportraits.org) as a research tool. \nSuggested registration donation of $10. \n URL:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/event/when-wollaston-came-to-wilton-painting-portraits-in-colonial-virginia/ LOCATION:Virtual Presentation CATEGORIES:Events,Lecture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/Boldt-Nov-12.png ORGANIZER;CN="Wilton%20House%20Museum":MAILTO:kwatkins@wiltonhousemuseum.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20210121T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20210121T190000 DTSTAMP:20200929T142818 CREATED:20200922T143845Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200922T143845Z UID:4039-1611252000-1611255600@www.wiltonhousemuseum.org SUMMARY:Digging up the Past at Charleston’s Chancognie House DESCRIPTION:Join us for our annual lecture series. This virtual presentation will feature Juliana Falk\, “The Accidental Preservationist” of the Simon Jude Chancognie House. \nA move south to escape winter weather became an unexpected journey in preservation ranging from paint research with Dr. Susan L.

February’s virtual lecture will feature Wilton House Museum Education Director Katie Watkins. \nIn 1998\, William & Mary archaeologists uncovered the material record of the lives of nearly a century of enslaved families. This excavation recovered not only the most important available tool for understanding daily life at Wilton\, but the largest collection of objects associated with Wilton’s original location in existence. In 2021\, “Wilton Uncovered: Archaeology Illuminates an Enslaved Community\,” displays this collection for the first time alongside Dennis Winston’s poignant artistic renderings of the community that used\, loved\, broke\, resented\, played with\, and discarded the artifacts. Join us to follow the development of\, “Wilton Uncovered\,” and its art in this special Zoom presentation. \nSuggested registration donation of $10.  \n URL:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/event/20-years/ LOCATION:Virtual Presentation ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/Watkins-Feb-18.png ORGANIZER;CN="Wilton%20House%20Museum":MAILTO:kwatkins@wiltonhousemuseum.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20210318T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20210318T190000 DTSTAMP:20200929T142818 CREATED:20200922T144933Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200922T144933Z UID:4043-1616090400-1616094000@www.wiltonhousemuseum.org SUMMARY:Martha Jefferson and the Virginia Campaigns DESCRIPTION:Join us for our annual lecture series. This virtual presentation will feature Diane Ehrenpreis\, Curator of Decorative Arts\, Monticello. \nDiane will introduce new information regarding the Ladies of the Revolution\, women in PA\, MD\, NJ\, and in this case\, Virginia\, who undertook a public campaign to raise funds and distribute aid to the Virginia soldiers in 1780. Martha Jefferson organized this effort\, and her participation has been misunderstood as ineffectual. New documents show that women in approximately half a dozen counties actively supported the war effort with an organized system for raising and delivering funds\, but those other campaigns by Arnold\, Cornwallis\, and Tarleton left the project in shambles\, with many of the lady donors becoming refugees of war. \nThis presentation will take place on Zoom. \nSuggested registration donation of $10.  \n URL:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/event/martha-jefferson-and-the-virginia-campaigns/ LOCATION:Virtual Presentation CATEGORIES:Events,Lecture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/Ehrenpreis-March-18.png ORGANIZER;CN="Wilton%20House%20Museum":MAILTO:kwatkins@wiltonhousemuseum.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20210415T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20210415T190000 DTSTAMP:20200929T142818 CREATED:20200922T145237Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200922T145316Z UID:4045-1618509600-1618513200@www.wiltonhousemuseum.org SUMMARY:The Post-Revolution Evolution of Dining in America and Great Britain DESCRIPTION:Join us for our annual lecture series. This virtual presentation will feature Janine Skerry\, Senior Curator of Metals\, The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. \nAlthough fundamental to daily life\, the consumption of food is nonetheless in a near-constant state of flux\, especially when taken in company with others. Every aspect of dining—from what and where we eat\, to how food is served\, and even how it is conveyed to our mouths—has changed dramatically over time. Colonial Williamsburg’s senior curator of metals Janine Skerry will explore shifting tabletops and re-furbished rooms as service à la Française gave way to service à la Russe during the post-Revolutionary evolution of dining in America and Britain. \nThis presentation will take place on Zoom. \nSuggested registration donation of $10. \n URL:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/event/the-post-revolution-evolution-of-dining-in-america-and-great-britain/ LOCATION:Virtual Presentation CATEGORIES:Events,Lecture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/Skerry-April-15.png ORGANIZER;CN="Wilton%20House%20Museum":MAILTO:kwatkins@wiltonhousemuseum.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20210506T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20210506T190000 DTSTAMP:20200929T142818 CREATED:20190724T162553Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200916T141126Z UID:3852-1620324000-1620327600@www.wiltonhousemuseum.org SUMMARY:Of the Highest Finish: Silver in the White House Collection DESCRIPTION: May will feature Melissa Naulin\, Associate Curator\, The White House. \nWell-illustrated overview of the history of silver use in the White House\, drawing on both extant pieces and documentary evidence.

Cochrane Foundation. \n  \n URL:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/event/of-the-highest-finish-silver-in-the-white-house-collection/ LOCATION:Wilton House Museum\, 215 South Wilton Road\, Richmond\, VA\, 23226\, United States CATEGORIES:Lecture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://www.wiltonhousemuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/Naulin_Event.png ORGANIZER;CN="Wilton%20House%20Museum":MAILTO:kwatkins@wiltonhousemuseum.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
