The South End Historical Society House Tour is two weeks away - have you purchased your advance tickets yet?

The House Tour is an inside look at restored and renovated homes in our historic neighborhood. It is a favorite of anyone interested in home design, architecture, restoration, history, or preservation. In addition to the homes, the South End Burying Ground will be open as one of the stops along the route, with a talk about the grounds at 11:00 am and 2:00 pm.

Tickets for the House Tour are $30 in advance and are available at www.southendhistoricalsociety.org/housetour. Tickets will also be available on the day of the Tour for $35 each at Sprogis & Neale Real Estate, 679 Tremont Street.
