Purcell-Cutts House
Ticketed Exhibition (FREE for members!)
The Purcell-Cutts House, the MIA's Prairie School treasure in south Minneapolis, will be decked out in period finery for the winter holidays.
Designed by William Purcell and George Elmslie in 1913, the Prairie School-style Purcell-Cutts House will be decorated for the holidays to reflect the upper-middle-class, progressive lifestyle of the Purcells around 1915. Forty-five minute tours led by costumed docents will emphasize the gifts, toys, food and social traditions of the period that the Purcells might have enjoyed.
"Winterlights" tours at the Purcell-Cutts House will be given weekends during the holiday season, November 26, 2010 through January 2, 2011.
