We are having a Neighborhood & Garden Tour, and we would like you to participate!
**This is a FREE event. No tickets necessary. Participants will have information about their homes on display the day of the event for neighbors to enjoy**
You don’t want to have people trooping through your place? No Problem! To encourage participation and to Covid-proof the event, all we are asking for is a poster board outside giving some info about history and/or architecture of your home.
You don’t know anything about the history and/or architecture of your place? We have you covered! Some members of The History Club of Washington Park Area Neighbors have volunteered to help you find out.
You don’t live in a single-family home? Not only is that not a problem, it is an opportunity! We would like buildings of all types to feel welcome to join in: single-family homes, apartments, duplexes, triplexes, businesses, churches, everybody!
But you don’t think your place is that interesting? The history doesn’t have to be exotic or the architecture grand to be interesting! I think you’ll be surprised how many stories both big and small are waiting to be discovered in our neighborhood.
Do I hear you say you have no artistic ability and putting together a poster is intimidating? Fear not! This is a judgment-free zone because this is just about getting neighbors out, talking to each other, and enjoying our lovely neighborhood. We are also going to include garden related activities and a scavenger hunt around the neighborhood for the young and young at heart.
