Join us for a special evening at Sunsets & Sips on October 17, where Nora Burba Trulsson and Andrew Pielage will be our featured guests. They will be signing copies of Nora’s latest book, Taliesin West: At Home With Frank Lloyd Wright, and will also be available to answer questions.


In her book, Nora explores the stories behind Wright’s desert masterpiece, offering insights into its iconic spaces, from the Garden Room to the Cabaret Theatre. She reveals how Taliesin West served as both a source for creative inspiration and a home for Wright.


Andrew Pielage’s photography beautifully captures Wright’s tribute to the Sonoran Desert, showcasing one of his most renowned and frequently visited works.


Copies of the book will be available for purchase. Don’t miss this magical evening of wine, live music, engaging conversation, and a stunning sunset.

About the film


Insurance worker C.C. Baxter (Jack Lemmon) lends his Upper West Side apartment to company bosses to use for extramarital affairs. When his manager Mr. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray) begins using Baxter’s apartment in exchange for promoting him, Baxter is disappointed to learn that Sheldrake’s mistress is Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine), the elevator girl at work whom Baxter is interested in himself. Soon Baxter must decide between the girl he loves and the advancement of his career.
