Support the Historical Society of Long Beach (HSLB) at its next See, Sip & Savor fundraiser on May 19 where guests will have the chance to attend an illustrated presentation on renowned architect Edward Killingsworth by Ronald Dean Lindgren, partner in Killingsworth Stricker Lindgren Wilson Architects.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn Architectural History of Edward A. Killingsworth FAIA\u201d details Killingsworth\u2019s architectural footprint in Long Beach and will take place at the Petroleum Club, located at 3636 Linden Avenue.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring WWII, Woodrow Wilson Classical High School Long Beach grad and award winning USC School of Architecture student, Edward Killingsworth, was awarded a Bronze Star overseeing production of millions of photo-maps in preparation for the Allied invasion of Europe,\u201d the HSLB posted to Facebook. \u201cWhen the war was over, the US, poised for a fresh start, had its eye on a new midcentury style and culture. The young architect was happy to oblige. The rest, as we say, is history.\u201d<\/p>\n

The tour portion of the event will lead guests through homes and offices designed by Killingsworth, including his own residence, with wine, beverages and hors d\u2019oeuvres provided throughout.<\/p>\n

Guests can attend the presentation from 4:00PM to 6:00PM or the home tour from 6:00PM to 9:00PM, or both portions of the event. Advanced tickets are required for this 2018 iteration of the fundraiser.<\/p>\n

The HSLB is a nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting people to the city by collecting, preserving and exhibiting Long Beach\u2019s material history. Learn more about HSLB here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
