Season's Greetings

Opening November 24, 2020

Season’s Greetings at Hillwood draws inspiration from the new publication A Garden for All Seasons: Marjorie Merriweather Post’s Hillwood, with resplendent Christmas trees and holiday décor throughout the estate.

Natural Beauties: Exquisite Works of Minerals and Gems

Through January 3, 2021

Natural Beauties is the first special exhibition at Hillwood to focus on finely crafted objects that incorporate these exceptional stones and minerals. From antique Chinese jades to the grand 1920s mosaic table top commissioned for Post's Mar-A-Lago, these intricately detailed pieces from Hillwood and borrowed from other collections present a history of luxury arts through the ages.
