Dear friends, In 2004, Governor Doyle declared May 26th WISCONSIN STATE TEN CHIMNEYS DAY. Please join us for this year's celebration on THURSDAY MAY 26th, 2011, and the observation of three wonderful anniversaries: the marriage of Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne (1922), Ten Chimneys opening to the public (2003), and the estate's dedication as a National Historic Landmark (2004). |

Please arrive and park and stroll over to the Main House Courtyard. (Early birds are rewarded with the better parking spots.)

Join our annual group "family" photo in the Main House Courtyard - a tradition we started in 2003, when we first opened the gates of Ten Chimneys to the public.

Enjoy live music and a complimentary champagne, coffee, and cake reception at the oh-so-lovely Lunt-Fontanne Program Center - featuring our 2011 Exhibition of original pen-and-ink drawings of the Lunts as imagined by artist Justin "Squigs" Robertson. You will also be treated to 25% off in our delightful Museum Store. (Please note that Estate Tours will not be available - all tours were given away to 200 lucky winners in early May - and that the party will go on rain or shine.) Special thanks to the Wisconsin Philharmonic, Anodyne Coffee Roasting Company, and, our official caterer, Shully's Cuisine & Events.
