In conjunction with its ongoing Living Kitchens project, Cliveden of the National Trust presents Mid-Century Modern, an event exploring the mid-century architecture of the historic site with 1960s-themed food, pop-up shops, board games, and television shows.
Through Cliveden's Living Kitchens, Cliveden of the National Trust undertakes a historical interpretation project that compares domestic life in two centuries through the exploration of the 1767 and 1959 kitchens inside Cliveden's historic Germantown mansion, revealing how architecture, design, and the technology of the times defined the experiences of those enslaved and in service and their relationships with the household's family.
