March 20, 2026 5:30–8:30 PM Lapham-Patterson House
Join us for a one-night-only equinox experience at the historic Lapham-Patterson House.
Timed with the spring equinox, this special fundraising evening offers guests the rare opportunity to see the house as it was intentionally designed—when sunlight aligns with key architectural features on just one day each year. The program will explore Charles Lapham’s Spiritualist beliefs and how they influenced the design, symbolism, and orientation of this remarkable home.
The evening includes a cocktail hour with hors d’oeuvres, beer, wine, and a signature equinox sangria, followed by a seated dinner featuring a special seasonal menu and dessert. Guests will enjoy live piano music drawn from period sheet music in the Museum’s collection, a guided viewing of the equinox light phenomenon, and time to explore the house throughout the evening.
Perfect Alignment is a new fundraiser created exclusively to support the preservation and programming of the Lapham-Patterson House.
Seating is limited. Advance tickets are required and must be purchased by Friday, March 13:
