Join us for an illustrated talk by architectural historian Wendy Frontiero about the architectural changes of Gorton's of Gloucester, where Jonathan Bayliss was an executive in the 1960s and early 1970s and worked with architect Eduardo Catalano on a new Gorton's headquarters.
Wendy Frontiero is an architect and historic preservation consultant based in Gloucester, where her father's family has lived and worked for more than a hundred years. Over her career, Wendy has undertaken numerous projects to document, evaluate, and enhance historic buildings on Cape Ann.
This is one of several special events in 2026, the centenary of Jonathan Bayliss's 1926 birth.
