The rich legacy of the Arts and Crafts Movement is most known for its influence on architecture and art; however, the movement also played an important role in the garden world by defining the garden as a harmonious component of the home. In "Gardens of the Arts and Crafts Movement", historian, author, and preservation consultant, Judith B. Tankard, will survey the inspirations, characteristics, and development of garden design during the Arts and Crafts Movement. Tankard presents a selection of houses and gardens from the era, with an emphasis on the diversity of designers who helped forge a special approach to garden design. In conjunction with the exhibition Arts & Craftsman: Simplicity, Honesty, and Truth to Materials in the Farm House Museum. Exhibition and programs support provided by Carole Pletcher.
Tankard is the author or co-author of ten illustrated books on landscape history, including her most recent publications, Gardens of the Arts and Crafts Movement (2018).
