Spend the afternoon immersed in a seamless synthesis of art and architecture at the extraordinary Big Sur home of renowned artist Emile Norman, who passed away in 2009. Jeff Mallory and Kevin Smith of the Emile Norman Charitable Trust will host a gourmet luncheon catered by Rima Crow and lead a tour of this one-of-a-kind hand-built house situated on a private road and commanding breathtaking coastal views.
Emile's prodigious talent is on view everywhere you look, from the architecture to the detailing to the numerous examples of his work, including sculpture and his unique endomosaic and wood inlay designs. You will not want to miss the pipe organ and its stunning custom case -- a true wonder. Transportation to and from the event is provided so you can relax and enjoy the gorgeous Highway 1 scenery along the way. Since the home is open by invitation only, this is a rare opportunity for an intimate experience of the life and work of this remarkable, quintessential Big Sur artist.
