Celebrate Frank Lloyd Wright’s Legacy with A Day at Taliesin 2025 in Spring Green, Wisconsin

Immerse in the autumn tapestry of the landscape at Taliesin on Sunday, October 13th, as we celebrate its rich history in the Driftless region, the architecture and ideas of Frank Lloyd Wright, and the local community through our annual extravaganza, A Day at Taliesin. Coinciding with Indigenous Peoples Day, this year's event honors indigenous traditions while inviting outdoor exploration of the Taliesin estate, offering a deeper understanding of the interconnected landscapes and cultures that shape the region.

Your day will start at The Frank Lloyd Wright Visitor Center (5607 County Road C), where you will receive a parking pass, map, and wristband. After checking in, you will drive to Hillside Studio and Theater to begin your day (address and map will be provided upon check-in).

Visitors can explore the Hillside Studio and Theater, the Riverview Terrace Field School kitchen garden, and the exterior grounds of other buildings along the estate pathways. We invite you to bring a picnic lunch from home or enjoy food from and the REAP UpRoot Food Truck and Chef's Hideout

For your enjoyment, there will be children's activities, including entertainment from Wild Rumpus Circus, local artisans and organizations, FREE Driftless Landscape Tours, a FREE Nixtamalization and Corn Braiding Demonstration with Oneida grower Dan Cornelius and Chef Yusuf Bin-Rella, and a live performance by Little Priest Singers!

Little Priest Singers are a Ho-Chunk family drum group based in Wisconsin Dells. Their performance, in the historic Hillside Theater (3:00PM), will combine music, dancing, and storytelling for an exciting celebration of the Driftless Region's original people. The performance is an additional fee of $5 per person.

Explore the landscape that Wright loved with a Driftless Landscape Tour! Driftless Landscape Tours are a guided, one-mile, family-friendly walk through the Taliesin estate. There is no additional fee for Driftless Landscape tours. However, there is limited capacity so guests must pre-register.
