A special thank you to Janice Bruno Griffin of Party Pros, Inc. She's our go-to person for events at RHS, and has been for years. She likely knows that kitchen at the Graver-Driscoll House better than most of the RHS folks.
The current exhibit at RHS is Hetherington Design Dynasty, featuring the three generations of architects in the Hetherington family and the art work of Mildred Lyon Hetherington.
Mildred was known for her portraits, and she did many portraits of local children.
Janice helped at an RHS event last week, and saw the exhibit. It turns out that Janice and her siblings sat for portraits by Mildred, and Janice has agreed to lend those to us for the exhibit.
Here are the portraits of Janice and her brother. Aren't they wonderful?
