UPCOMING EVENTS

Travel back in time to the days of the Vanderbilts, Whitneys, and Astors to learn about the homes, parties, and real life personalities that inspired Edith Wharton, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and others who created countless novels, programs, and films about this interesting time in America. The talk will also delve into the latest series filmed on Long Island, HBO’s historical drama, The Gilded Age—2d season, October 29-December 3, 2023. This program is by North Shore historian and author Paul J. Mateyunas. Mr. Mateyunas will autograph copies of his books, North Shore Long Island: Country Houses, 1890-1950 and Long Island's Gold Coast.
