The Yellow Rose Supper and Panel Discussion
Join The Hermitage Hotel for a casual, socially distant, supper and panel discussion in their lobby on Tuesday, August 18 at 6:00 PM. Guests will gather for the unveiling of the Anne Dallas Dudley rug in the lobby. Dinner will include chilled cuts, vegetables fresh from the garden at Glen Leven, appetizers and wine.
The panel discussion will include a lively discussion on women's suffrage, some stories about what was happening at the hotel during that time, and what The Hermitage Hotel's role was for the six weeks preceding the historic vote. Panelists will include: moderator Dr. Carole Bucy, Davidson County Historian; Trevania Henderson, Granddaughter of Anne Dallas Dudley, and others.
The evening will also highlight a new painting "War of the Roses" by artist Kathleen Deerie Carlton. The painting depicts a scene in the lobby of The Hermitage Hotel in August of 1920 when it was filled with pro and anti-suffragists, legislators, lobbyists and news reports. The painting will be available for purchase.
$125.00 per person including tax and service charge.
