Harvest Moon Festival
The fourth a n n u a I Harvest
Moon Festival will be held in the
b e a u t i f u 1 surroundings of the
School of Music's hist<' ric old
mansion, Gardencourt.
In 1906, George ·.n. Norton
owned a fourtc~~~-acre estate
where he had developed the spa­cious
buildings and delightful gar­dens
over looking the treetops of
Cherokee Park. It took two years
to complete these buildings. A
great deal of that two years was
put in o nthe hand carved wood­work
and furniture. In 1908, Nor­ton
and his family moved into
Gardencourt. It was then handed
down from generation to genera­tion
for forty years.
and Dean Anderson approached
her heirs asking if they would
donate Gardencourt to the Uni­versity
of Louisville's School of
Music. The only thing that suf­fered
from the delay was the
maintenance fund which was re­gretfully
omitted.
The Harvest Moon Festival was
set up by the present Dean, Robert
Whitney, and members of the stu­dent
body as a free party for the
entire University. The purpose
was for .the students in the other
schools to have a chance to see
Gardencourt at it's most beauti­ful
time ,the-autumn season. There
will be ballroom dancing in the
ballroom, square dancing in the
court yard, and a big bonfire
from 11:00 p.m. until 12 midnight.
During the bonfire there will be
singing and socializing.
