A lecture on Frank Lloyd Wright's campus at Florida Southern College, sponsored by the Sarasota Alliance for Historic Preservation, will be presented at 7 p.m. Thursday at the Ringling College of Art and Design.

Florida Southern College is preparing for a major restoration project. The event will feature a slide show of the structures and details of his work.

Wright's son-in-law and first apprentice, William Wesley Peters of Taliesin Associated Architects of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, designed Sarasota's Van Wezel Hall in the late 1960s.
