Objects featured for display will change regularly, offering something new and interesting during every visit.

Flagler House and Hotel Tours In 1896 Henry Flagler opened his second hotel in Palm Beach, which he named the Palm Beach Inn. In 1901 the Palm Beach Inn was renamed The Breakers, and, in 1904, the hotel was rebuilt. The new, more luxurious hotel attracted a Who’s Who of clientele, from America’s wealthy elite to American Presidents and European nobility.

Between 1925 and 1926 The Breakers was again entirely rebuilt, this time by Flagler’s heirs, to the highest standards of luxury. Designed by the highly acclaimed architectural firm of Schultze and Weaver and modeled after the Villa Medici in Rome, this version of The Breakers immediately eclipsed the Hotel Royal Poinciana, setting a new standard of resort luxury that has remained unsurpassed for nearly a century.

Knights of the Air: Aviator Heroes of World War I

Frank Tinsley created this heroic pilot for the cover of the August, 1933, issue of the popular pulp magazine George Bruce’s Squadron: Stories of the War in the Air. Collection of Jean S. and Frederic A. Sharf.

October 17 – December 31 Free with Museum Admission.

The first museum exhibit devoted to the image of the World War I pilot-hero, Knights of the Air honors the daredevil pilots who risked everything for the cause at the dawn of aviation.

Imbued with a sense of adventure and fierce patriotism, aviators became the face of the War efforts back home. Works of art, souvenirs, postcards, and newspapers celebrated their valiant efforts. After the War, the romance of flight was embodied in new types of daring aviators, such as barnstorming aerial acrobats, air mail pilots, and bootleggers.

Popular pulp magazines such as George Bruce’s Squadron and Hollywood films like Wings (1927) capitalized on the appeal of the brave World War I aviator, inspiring many future pilots who would serve America in commercial aviation and future military conflicts.

The original members of the famous First Yale Unit, training in West Palm Beach, Florida, in 1917. Erl Clinton Barker Gould Photograph Album, National Naval Aviation Museum library collection.

Organized by the Flagler Museum in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of America’s entry into World War I in 1917, Knights of the Air features works of art, artifacts, and printed materials on loan from the private collection of Jean S. and Frederic A. Sharf, and other private and public collections.

Women of the Gilded Age Lecture

The Richest Woman in America: Hetty Green in the Gilded Age

Guided by the shrewd money-men in her family, Hetty Green grew up to be one of the most powerful financiers in American history. A businesswoman who transcended the expectations set upon women of her time, she was interested in a diverse array of money-making opportunities such as real estate, railroads, and financial loans. Even as a married woman and mother of two, Hetty Green remained financially independent and amassed a great fortune. Despite yellow journalism’s obsession with the portrayal of her quirky and meager lifestyle, her legacy is not wholly as The Witch of Wall Street but rather as the fiercely independent, Richest Woman in America.

Janet Wallach is the author of nine books and has written extensively about influential women. Her latest, The Richest Woman in America: Hetty Green in the Gilded Age, is a biography of the eccentric 19th century financial genius. The Wall Street Journal called it “an engaging biography ... well researched and well written.” The Washington Post said it “tells the story of America’s repeated busts and booms in a way that seems very relevant right now.” Ms. Wallach is the author of Chanel: Her Style and Her Life, a bio of the 20th century’s most important female fashion designer. Her book Sergalio is an historical novel about the harem at Topkapi Palace, Istanbul.

6:00 pm, Thursday, February 1 Free for Sustaining level Members and above $10 for Individual and Family level Members $20 for Non-members Reservations recommended.

Following a recent performance, The Washington Post raved that “three of Russia’s most spectacular young soloists… turned in a performance of such power and sweeping passion that it left you nearly out of breath.”

“ a subtly coloured performance that

balanced confidently between intimacy and extraversion.

”

2018 Whitehall Lecture Series

Heroes of the Homefront: World War I and the Faces of Wartime America

The 33rd Annual Whitehall lecture Series will commemorate the roles of American soldiers and their supporters during World War I. Each lecture will present a unique range of historical perspectives, including those of political and military leadership, the Doughboys on the front lines, minority infantrymen conscripted to battle, and women on the homefront and abroad.

When possible, each lecture will be followed by a book signing with the author. Copies of the speaker’s book will be available for purchase.

Free for Sustaining level Members and above $10 per lecture for Individual and Family level Members, $28 per lecture for Non-members, includes Museum Admission. $125 for the complete Series of five lectures Purchase Tickets Sponsored by:

March 1917: On the Brink of War and Revolution

by Will Englund 3:00 pm, Sunday, February 11 Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Will Englund will spotlight the events leading into World War I and the consequences of the action of war, including research from a wealth of contemporary Russian and American sources. Englund will deliver a detailed telling of the month that transformed the world’s greatest nations, March 1917.

The Last of the Doughboys: The Forgotten Generation and Their Forgotten War

by Richard Rubin 3:00 pm, Sunday, February 18 Richard Rubin spent more than a decade compiling the firsthand stories of World War I soldiers as a written legend of accounts. In The Last of the Doughboys, he explores their vivid recollections of war that express equally poignant views of the camaraderie among men and the horrors of industrial warfare.

This lecture is sure to tell a story of World War I unlike any you may have heard before.

World War I: The American Soldier Experience

by Dr. Jennifer Keene 3:00 pm, Sunday, February 25 An in-depth look at the complexities of what it means for Americans to ‘go to war.’ Honing in on the act of conscription and the ways in which America raised its forces during World War I, Keene will explore the racial and cultural differences among American soldiers, exemplified by groups such as the Harlem Hellfighters, and life on the homefront after returning home. Supported by vivid imagery of the earliest training exercises, and later the necessity of trench and arms training on the Western Front, this lecture will present World War I from a personal perspective.

The Second Line of Defense: American Women and World War I

by Dr. Lynn Dumenil 3:00 pm, Sunday, March 4 Lynn Dumenil will focus on popular culture images and occupations of women in World War I and the conventional notions of womanhood that suggested the continuing power of expectations about women’s traditional roles in the family. Attention given to “modern” women’s war service and heroic activism offered evidence of boundary-crossing women and removed restrictive limits. The media’s fascination with the novelty of women at war led it to exaggerate the degree to which American women challenged gender conventions and helps us understand why many observers believed - inaccurately - that the war would prove transformative in reshaping women’s lives.

Uncle Sam Wants You: World War I and the Making of the Modern American Citizen

by Dr. Christopher Capozzola 3:00 pm, Sunday, March 11 This lecture examines the ways in which American politics shifted as a result of a new era of war strategy and how the mobilization of a society of concerned citizens affected the homefront. While at first, duty, obligation, and personal responsibility were the focus of homefront efforts, growing strife led to an uproar of violence and a heated political climate. Told through the unique voices of political leaders and American citizens, Uncle Sam Wants You will cover military conscriptions and conscientious objection, homefront voluntarism, regulation of enemy aliens, and the emergence of civil liberties movements.

Watch the Lecture Series Live Online The Flagler Museum Whitehall Lecture Series may be viewed live online via a free Livestream broadcast through the Museum’s website.

Visitors may listen live, see the presentation, and submit questions. Each program will also be archived and available for viewing after the lecture.
