GIVEAWAY: Glass House Tickets
June 28, 2011
In honor of an Architizer-sponsored Glass House Conversation this week, we’re giving away two passes to the hot ticket of the architectural summer season — Philip Johnson’s Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut.
Here’s the skinny: architect and Architizer co-founder Marc Kushner is leading the discussion over at Glass House Conversations throughout this week and he wants to know who to invite to an architecture pool party (this generation’s equivalent of Philip Johnson and David Whitney’s infamous salons, which hosted the likes of Andy Warhol, Frank Stella, and a much younger Bob Stern).
Head over there to weigh in with your (thoughtful) answer, then re-post your comment here, and you’ll be entered to win TWO FREE TICKETS to the Glass House. (UPDATE: Congrats to Joel Folliard, selected to win free tickets to the Glass House this season!) Details after the jump.

Please visit http://philipjohnsonglasshouse.org/visit/#focus for a detailed description of the tours.
Rules: Only one entry per person. Comment on the Glass House discussion page and repost it here (so we have your email address!). Sorry, a simple “pick me” won’t cut it. Contest ends at 5 pm on Friday, July 1. Winner will be announced on Tuesday, July 5, following the 4th of July holiday. Once selected, the winner can coordinate a date for the tour with the Glass House.
