Join us for An Evening with Kim Bixler!

Did you ever wonder what it would be like to live in a home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright? Here’s a chance to find out. Don't miss this chance to spend a fun and inspiring night in person with Kim Bixler. It's the perfect way to unwind and enjoy a memorable evening.

Kim Bixler’s family owned Frank Lloyd Wright’s 1908 Edward E. Boynton House in Rochester, New York, from 1977 to 1994. She is the author of the book Growing Up in a Frank Lloyd Wright House, and is also featured in the PBS documentary Frank Lloyd Wright’s Boynton House: The Next Hundred Years.

In her multi-media presentation, Kim recounts the joys and pitfalls of owning and living in a Wright-designed home. Living with the public’s curiosity, playing hide-and seek, coping with the habitually leaky roof and managing constant renovations make this an unforgettable story. If you love reality home-renovating projects, architectural tours and historical homes, you’ll love this event.

Also included with your $40 in-person admission ticket is a Frank Lloyd Wright "Tree of Life" metal bookmark based on a window created for the Darwin D. Martin main house in Buffalo.

  • Code for one free ticket to Frank Lloyd Wright's Fontana Boathouse tour booked through Explore Buffalo
