Taliesin Preservation stewards the historic Taliesin estate in Spring Green, Wisconsin, preserving and sharing the legacy of Frank Lloyd Wright through guided tours, specialty workshops, concerts, and seasonal events.
The organization operates a variety of public and ticketed experiences on the 800-acre property, including multi-hour Estate Tours and Highlights Tours that showcase key structures like Hillside, Taliesin, and Tan-y-Deri. Taliesin Preservation also programs focused offerings that place visitors in close contact with the site’s architecture and landscape—photography workshops led by Andrew Pielage, intimate house concerts such as a solo performance by Grammy® Award-winner Mike Block, and culinary experiences like the Bread Baking Lab with Bazile Booth. Seasonal and one-day events include birthday celebrations for Frank Lloyd Wright, farm and garden tours tied to the Savor Farm and Food Tour, and holistic weekends exploring Japanese Kokoro practices.
Taliesin Preservation presents experiences guided by knowledgeable staff and guest experts, providing historical context, practical instruction, and opportunities to engage with the property’s agricultural and cultural programs. Tours note the estate’s architectural significance and include light refreshments on selected longer itineraries. As the steward of a site that includes structures recognized for their cultural value, Taliesin Preservation focuses on conservation, education, and authentic experiences that connect visitors to Wright’s work and the Driftless Wisconsin landscape.
