Last summer’s popular Clayton tour, Through the Back Door: Domestic Service in the Gilded Age returns this year, and will run from July 1 through September 28. On the lawn, period summer whites will hang on a laundry line based on a nineteenth-century photograph of Clayton. Tours enter Clayton through the back door, as the maids, cooks and other domestic staff once did, and throughout the house artifacts relating to domestic service will be on display.
