Casey was a great tour guide! Always want to learn more about Wharton Esherick's work and life. The 1956 studio is a building I have been interested in going into since my last visit this past December. This time I made the trip up just to do this tour when I saw it become a possibility. Absolutely worth the trip! I introduced Wharton to my friend on this trip as well. We had a great visit, and I look forward to my next one.
