Taliesin West

Taliesin West in Scottsdale, Arizona is considered one of Frank Lloyd Wright's greatest architectural masterpieces. This site served as his personal home, studio and campus for his architectural school. This site is considered central to understanding Wright's architectural genius. By visiting the site visitors are able to broaden their appreciation of architecture and Wright's continuing contribution to it through his theories of organic design. Taliesin West is the international headquarters for the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, the site of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, and the winter campus for the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture. Visiting this site is particularly meaningful since the buildings are used for the purposes for which they were designed; the sites still serve as living, working, educational facilities with an on-site architectural firm.

Venue Location: The entrance to Taliesin West is located at the intersection of Cactus Road and Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard (approx. 114th Street) in northeast Scottsdale.
