The Little Red Schoolhouse

Join us for a leisurely afternoon tour of three Village homes – sure to be a delight to the eye. The finale will be a lavish hors d’oeuvres buffet served upon return to the Schoolhouse. Always a sell-out. Members only.

The Sycamore Creek Church

Since its construction in the mid-1820's, this stone structure has served the surrounding community in several different guises. It was used as a church until the early 1870's; then, after a second story was added, it was operated by Conrad Zurwelle as a mill for grinding wheat and corn. During the 1890's it became a residence, and in this century was converted into a barn.

Internationally recognized artist Leslie G. Shiels has used her paint brushes to capture some of the timeless landmarks of Indian Hill.

From the bed of her pickup truck, Leslie has painted 44 vibrant images of the Village, forever preserved on canvas and now beautifully reproduced in book form.

Historical and anecdotal commentary provided by local resident, Bill Chatfield, escorts the reader through this scenic journey.

Phillip C. Long, former director of the Taft Museum of Art, penned a thoughtful foreword that further enriches this wondrous experience of seeing the Village through the eyes of an accomplished local artist.
