Philadelphia’s The Rittenhouse recently announced an exclusive collaboration with Philadelphia Museum of Art in honor of its Mary Cassatt at Work exhibition. Cassatt was a French Impressionist born in Pennsylvania and she has a special connection to the hotel, which stands on the grounds of her brother’s former estate. The hotel boasts Mary Cassatt Tea Room and Mary Cassatt Suite, and displays her artwork in the lobby.

“The rich history and culture of Philadelphia are the foundation of The Rittenhouse and our collaboration with the Philadelphia Museum of Art creates a unique opportunity for experiential storytelling,” said Reginald Archambault, general manager, The Rittenhouse. “Through our partnership, we’re able to honor Mary Cassatt’s spirit and further enhance our renowned guest experience.”

The hotel’s restaurants and bars will honor Cassatt’s legacy through the end of summer. At The Library Bar, find an impressionist-style seasonal cocktail menu with inspiration for the drinks coming from the color palettes and titles of her works. Cassatt’s signature chocolate truffles, using her original recipe, will be featured on the Afternoon Tea menu and as a turndown amenity for select guests. At Lacroix and Scarpetta, a special-edition Mural City Cellars Cabernet Franc Rosé named Mary Cassatt at Work will appear on menus with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the museum.
Guests can book the Lasting Impressions offer, including accommodations, tickets to the museum’s exhibit, an in-room tea experience for two, a bottle of the aforementioned wine and a gift bag including the truffles. With the Maternal Kiss offer, named for one of Cassatt’s famed works, guests receive spa treatments, a pool-side lunch experience and a gift.

Mar 27, 2025Golf to Gastronomy to the Great Outdoors, Phoenix Rolls Out the Desert Carpet
You won’t need a sleeping potion here. The coyotes will howl you to sleep,” said the driver who picked me up at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport to take me to my meeting at the historic Wigwam, a storied resort I last visited as a child. I’m excited to return to experience its characteristic adobe casitas and wander through its acres of lush Sonoran Desert landscape. Despite the driver’s warnings of menacing coyotes, I gaze in joy at the otherworldliness of the anthropomorphic saguaro cacti rising like humans waving their arms to the sky. They pepper the roadside and mottle the horizon all the way to purple- hued Camelback Mountain, a supreme hiking destination that gleams in the sun. Immense pinkish boulders, purportedly eons old, litter the expanses. They look like colossal petrified tennis balls left from a rigorous rally from long ago. Suddenly, a roadrunner speeds across the highway. “Whoa,” said the driver. “At least it wasn’t a Gila monster.”

Mar 26, 2025Head to Jackson Hole and Revel in the Remote Possibilities
For a city girl like me, stepping into the town square of Jackson, in northwest Wyoming, felt like walking onto a slicker set of the television show Gunsmoke. Wooden sawtooth facades surround Jackson’s Town Square (a.k.a. George Washington Memorial Park). Visitors stroll the boardwalk connecting the Western-style buildings, each with a large window displaying goods, restaurants and art galleries. Iconic arches, assembled with discarded elk antlers from nearby National Elk Refuge, perch on each corner of the town square. Stagecoaches pulled by teams of horses parade other city-dwellers around the park.
