The overall experience was eye opening. I somewhat knew what to expect because I had seen Wharton's studio on PBS but to see everything in person coupled with Cindy's knowledgeable presentation was a very satisfying experience. Also, the ease of getting our tickets online and to then walk in and not have to show any proof that we did so was a delight in itself...just say our name and with a click, we were done.

The docent was very informative. I have been many times and still learned some things. I really appreciated him having us up the driveway under the tree while he talked at the beginning. The perspective there of the three buildings is fabulous. I was disappointed to not be instructed to look in the bathroom. I did ask the docent and he said there was too much to cover, but, I've never not been able to look and I missed that. I could have ducked in anyway but I didn't.
