Merriweather

It seems hard to believe that Merriweather opened on July 15 1967. Marjorie Merriweather Post and James Rouse collaborated to open a premier arts venue on what was once a desolate underutilized field.  Then as now, many negotiations took place before the final product materialized.   Ken Ulman proposes new legislation that Envisions A Newly Renovated Merriweather Post Pavillion as the center of the Symphony Woods Cultural Park.  Our leadership will collaborate with Howard Hughes to create a thriving hub of arts and activity. 

“Visions describe what best should be – if and when mankind has the will to make them real” – James Rouse
