12th Annual Kitchen Revival Tour

One of our most popular events is back for a 12th year!  Don’t miss out, as this year promises to be a “Tour de Force,” complete with eight historically accurate renovations and kitchens that retain most of their original character. If you're planning a kitchen project or just love to see inside vintage homes, this is the program for you. Come learn how kitchens have evolved from utilitarian workspaces to the center of family living. You will see first hand that kitchens can be kept intact or appropriately renovated to meet the demands of modern lifestyles. This year the tour showcases creative solutions in a variety of price ranges and in houses that run the gamut from early 20th Century to Mid-Century Modern. Homeowners will be on hand to share their experiences and lend advice. Whether it’s the preservation of an original gem, a do-it-yourself restoration, or a renovation completed under the guidance of a local contractor, the Kitchen Revival Tour promises to be both educational and entertaining.

We have made some exciting changes to our ticketing process.  You will note that you may purchase individual tickets or “couples” tickets.  If you are a couple, we encourage you to purchase your tickets this way.  Each couple will receive one tour booklet and a companion ticket.  This is a great way to help us save paper and conserve printing energy.  Thank you for your support in our efforts to improve our process!
