We are OPEN and with new and exciting ways to experience Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West. You can experience the beauty of the Sonoran Desert through Wright's eyes, and hear Wright's voice with your own ears with our brand new self-guided audio tour. Explore Wright's winter home and desert laboratory at your own pace, comfortably with our new health and safety protocols. We hope to see you soon! FrankLloydWright.org/taliesin-west-reopens-fb/ The Taliesin West Audio Tour is made possible thanks to the generous support of Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust.
Journey with us along the Lower Wisconsin Riverway near Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin estate as Wisconsin water quality & fishery expert Jean Unmuth describes the area’s vibrant diversity and explains why this distinctive riverway was named a Wetland of International Importance.
If you’re planning a visit to the newly reopened Taliesin West, you may encounter some of our native wildlife. Please enjoy some photos of the critters that the our staff at Taliesin and Taliesin West staff have encountered.
Now that Taliesin West is open for visits once again, you can plan a trip to experience the rugged beauty of the Sonoran Desert where Frank Lloyd Wright was inspired to build his winter home and laboratory. You’ll also notice some petroglyphs during your tour: human-made figurations in stone. Learn why Wright was so fascinated with the petroglyphs found near the foot of the McDowell Mountains and why he decided to incorporate these ancient boulders into his architectural designs at Taliesin West.

For today’s social distance video, we’re taking a look at the Kiva Theatre at Taliesin West. In many ways, Frank Lloyd Wright’s desert home and studio is an experiment in light. Wright uses natural light and shadows as a design element throughout the property. Here, in the Kiva, he is experimenting with electric light. Taliesin West is NOW OPEN for tours, with all new health and safety protocols to keep our visitors and staff safe. Plan your visit today: bit.ly/TWisOpen If you are watching live and have any questions, please post them in the comments.
