The Georgia Trust's Study Tours
Tailored
for small groups, study tours
focus on historic preservation
projects in the areas visited. Two
study tours, one domestic and one
international, are offered each
year to Trust members. The Georgia
Trust sponsors two trips a year.
Members visit areas known
for both their architecture
richness and their preservation
efforts. Each trip features dinner
parties and cocktail receptions in
private estates with exclusive
visits to sites not open
for general touring. Some recent
past trips have taken our members
to such places as Istanbul,
Prague, Provence, Santa Fe,
Nantucket, Newport and the Hudson
River Valley.
