Philip Johnson's Glass House opens for tours
Since construction was completed in 1949, Philip Johnson's Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut has never been open to the public. That changes on April 30 when visitors can pay $25 for a 90-minute tour, $40 for a end-of-the-day tour that allows photography or much more for specialty events. The Advocate, a Connecticut newspaper, also reports that the grand opening on June 23 will feature dancers from Merce Cunningham's modern dance company performing to music from the Velvet Underground. Tickets are available online.
