November 18 Conrad Caldwell House 7 pm “Clarke & Loomis: A Landmark Partnership”. Free.

Here's a description from a notice about the same lecture held at a different location earlier in the year:

Quote:

Charles Julian Clarke and Arthur Loomis designed many beautiful landmark buildings for Louisville. From the J. B. Speed Art Museum and Conrad – Caldwell House to the Levy’s Building (now the Old Spaghetti Factory) and Carter Dry Goods Building (now the Science Center), Clarke & Loomis were the pre-eminent Louisville architects for over half a century. Fortunately, many of their distinguished designs still remain, but Clarke and Loomis themselves have not been extensively profiled or researched. This presentation will focus on these two legendary architects and provide more details of their working relationship. William B. Scott, Jr. is a noted Kentucky Architectural Historian, who has written and co-authored a number of books on Kentucky architecture. These publications include A History of the Profession of Architecture in Kentucky, Kentucky Courthouses, The Kentucky Encyclopedia, and Architecture of the Old South: Kentucky and Tennessee. Mr. Scott is also a scholar of the work of Frank Lloyd Wright and is currently working on a book/exhibition on Wright and his students Kentucky projects.
