Two new galleries inside the Palace exhibit antique furniture, paintings and
objects d’art from the original Maude Moore Latham collection and items
purchased to furnish the Palace for its opening on April 8, 1959. Many of the objects on exhibit have not been on view for decades. Eighteenth-century archaeological pottery and ceramics uncovered during the restoration are also on display. A collection of May Gordon Latham Kellenberger’s hats is also on exhibit.
Visitors are able to see the Palace evolve over time – from the furnishings of the 1950s to today’s more historically accurate portrayal of eighteenth century interiors.
Admission is included with the purchase of all-inclusive Governors Pass
ticket ($15 – Adults; $6 – Students). Special discounts are available to
groups.
