Glendower Update

Glendower had a great Christmas season. All together we were open 13 days and logged in a little more than 500 visitors. That is about 40 visitors a day average and considering we were open five hours each day and the guided tour is an hour long, no wonder the tour guides were always busy! Many thanks to all the volunteers who conducted tours and to the many volunteer musicians who provided musical entertainment. Special thanks to Abby Davey for finding and scheduling such wonderful volunteer  musicians. We so very much appreciate their time and effort during the busy holiday season.

The dining room decorations were inspired by the glass pieces on the mantel.

The log book reports visitors from as far away as Washington state in the west and Rhode Island in the east. A good many people came from Columbus and north - Ohio in general, but we also had a good number from Kentucky and Indiana.  When we asked folks how they found us, mostly they mentioned our web site.  The curators will be busy putting away the decorations this week, so enjoy this few pictures and if you  missed us this Christmas we re-open June 6th.

The library decorations were inspired by peacock feathers.

Peacocks and Red Berries on the front door.
Although Glendower is closed for the season until June, tours are available all winter and spring for groups of 20 or more at $5.00 per person. Reservations must be prepaid and should be made at least two weeks in advance. Call us at 513-932-1817 to book your tour.
