SOJOURNS
Inspired by the intimate size and close exploration offered by the Trust’s long-running Study Trips Abroad program, our Sojourns allow members to enjoy a similar experience at locales closer to home. Behind-the-scenes visits with local experts to private properties, historic sites, and museums headline each day while downtime is passed enjoying local fare and comfortable accommodations. We work with our Board of Governors, local members, and colleagues in the field to pull together the engaging and enjoyable itineraries expected of Trust travels. Sojourns are open to all Decorative Arts Trust members. Join today!
