Go behind the scenes of the John L. Wehle Gallery at Genesee Country Village & Museum to receive a private curator-led tour of the impressive textile vault. The vault is home to the Bruce & Susan Greene costume collection, which is one of the finest historic clothing collections in the country, featuring over 3,500 items from men, women and children across three centuries. This is an exclusive tour that is not typically open to the public and truly an exciting experience for both those who appreciate historical fashion and those with a fondness for history in general.
A sit-down buffet lunch will be provided after the tour in the meeting center dining room. After lunch you may want to return to the Wehle Gallery’s stunning art collection of 17th to 20th century paintings, drawings, prints and sculpture created by artists such as Frederick Remington, John Sloan, James Earl Fraser, etc. You will have the entire afternoon to explore the village. Trolley service will be available to assist you with your explorations.
Lunch buffet includes: Vegetarian Lasagna, Marinated Boneless Chicken Breast. Tossed Green Salad, Broccoli Raisin Cheddar Salad, Fruit Salad, Rolls and Butter, and Cookies. Lemonade, water, coffee, and tea provided.
