ADDISON — Architectural historians Glenn Andres and Curtis B. Johnson, authors of the 2014 book “Buildings of Vermont” (part of the “Buildings of the United States” series), will give an illustrated talk on Vermont’s architectural heritage on Wednesday, June 8, at 7 p.m. at the Chimney Point State Historic Site in Addison. The program is titled “Discovering Vermont Architecture Through ‘Buildings of Vermont.’”
Johnson’s stunning black-and-white Vermont architecture photographs are on display at Chimney Point through Aug. 7. The program will be in the second floor ballroom/exhibit room. Donations are appreciated.
The Chimney Point State Historic Site is located at 8149 VT Route 17, at the foot of the Lake Champlain Bridge. The building is a c. 1785 historic tavern that became a summer resort in the late 1800s. The site presents the history of the three earliest cultures here — Native American, French Colonial, and early American. Call 802-759-2412 for information.
The site is open Wednesdays through Sundays and Monday holidays through Oct. 10, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. For information about Vermont’s State-Owned Historic Sites, visit http://historicsites.vermont.gov.
