# Event Details

- **Event Name**: A Closer Look at Richard Morris Hunt
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 25 Sep, 2025 at 05:00 pm – Thu, 25 Sep, 2025 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: With Leslie Jones, Director of Museum Affairs and Chief Curator, The Preservation Society of Newport County

In the modern era, Richard Morris Hunt is often considered an idea. His name is used as an adjective: a Hunt building, a Hunt design, and so on. This simplification of his contributions to architectural history negates the revolutionary actions he took to reform our nation’s relationship with buildings.

Join Chief Curator Leslie Jones to learn more about the Preservation Society’s newest exhibition, “Richard Morris Hunt: In a New Light,” and discover not only what Hunt made, but what — and who — made Hunt.

A pre-lecture reception will begin at 5 pm. The exhibition will be open for viewing before and after the lecture.
