We’re looking forward to the 20th Annual Historic Healdsburg Homes Tour, on Sunday, May 2, from 1:00 to 4:30 PM. The Tour is being presented by the Healdsburg Chapter of the American Association of University Women (AAUW). Proceeds from the Tour support Healdsburg area public schools and scholarships.
This year, the Tour will visit five charming homes within walking distance of the historic Healdsburg Plaza. Each home on the Tour has a knowledgeable docent that can explain the historical significance of the home and discuss its special features. The last stop on the Tour will be a visit to the Healdsburg Museum’s “Cabins to Craftsman: 100 Years of Healdsburg Architecture” exhibit. The exhibit provides a glimpse into local historical architecture leading up to 1910. It includes pioneer furnishings and objects brought to Healdsburg after the California Gold Rush. You’ll also be able to view handmade quilts and furniture of the time; an 1869 stereopticon with 3-D stereoscopic images of 1870s Healdsburg; and much more. A special part of the exhibit focuses on “Then and Now” photographs of local 100-year-old buildings.
Tickets are $35 in advance or $40 on the day of the tour. Information on purchasing tickets can be found at the Healdsburg AAUW website.
