Program Description

Event Details

Janice Fischer will cover the history of Peace Haven at the Idle Hour estate. In 1938 James B. Schafer purchased Idle Hour from the Vanderbilt Estate and renamed it Pease Haven. It became the home to the Royal Fraternity of Master Metaphysicians, a group who believed that thought could manifest material outcomes and that immortality was achievable. Learn about the Baby Jean experiment, and the brief history of Peace Haven.
