Greece Historical Society presents........
IN SEARCH OF THE LOST ORCHESTRION FROM THE POWERS ART GALLERY
with Craig Smith
Wednesday, April 14, 2010, Greece Town Hall, 7:00 p.m.
When Daniel Powers died in 1897, he was one of Rochester's richest and most civic minded citizens. For over 50 years he used his fortune to construct the famous Powers Building in downtown Rochester and create and share his extensive collection of art at the Powers Art Gallery. A prominent feature of the gallery was a large player organ or orchestrion. Learn what happened to it after he died and see dozens of pictures of the gallery that were discovered during Mr. Smith's research.
