Live with Thomas Jefferson: Hospitality at Monticello


Monticello has hosted many visitors in its over two-hundred-year history, both as the home of Thomas Jefferson, and as a museum. This week’s livestreams discuss what visiting Monticello was like in Jefferson’s time and today. To begin, please join us for a live Q&A with Mr. Jefferson himself, interpreted by master scholar-interpreter and founding Innermost House Advisor, Bill Barker HERE. We'll discuss the many people who came to Monticello during Jefferson's lifetime, and the enslaved people behind the scenes who made Jefferson’s reputation for hospitality possible.
