Location: The JC Cock House
817 W. Maxwell Street, Lexington, KY 40508

📅 Date: Wednesday, September 3rd
⏰ Time: 6PM

Join us on September 3rd at 6 pm for a special evening at the JC Cock House, a circa 1810 summer kitchen that’s been masterfully transformed on the historic Botherum property by celebrated landscape designer Jon Carloftis.

This incredible example of adaptive reuse maintains the building’s historic character while incorporating modern amenities like updated electrical and plumbing, proper drainage. Located on the beautifully landscaped grounds of historic Botherum, guests will also enjoy a stroll through some of the most thoughtfully designed gardens in Lexington. It’s a rare opportunity to experience preservation, design, and horticultural excellence all in one place. Hope to see you there!

As always, this deTour is free and open to the public.

*Parking will be tight since the neighborhood is mostly residential, but Gatton Park and the pay parking at Rupp Arena should provide plenty of options
