West Adams Heritage Association Holiday Tour & Progressive Dinner

West Adams Heritage Association is hosting “Hearthside in Harvard Heights,” their 32nd Annual Holiday Tour & Progressive Dinner.  This year’s tour opens the doors to a half dozen historic Craftsman style homes– including the Lucy Wheeler Residence, designed by architects Greene and Greene– in the Harvard Heights neighborhood of the Historic West Adams District.

The Hearthside in Harvard Heights Holiday Tour takes place on Saturday and Sunday, December 1 and 2, with the progressive dinner tours beginning at 3 p.m. each day and departing approximately every 30 minutes after that.  Early arrival is recommended to tour the first house, which is the location of check-in.  A separate course of a festive holiday menu will be served at each house, and will feature appetizers, champagne, soup, salad, an entrée with sides, and dessert.

Tickets: WAHA Members $65; General Public $80.  All Progressive Dinner tickets after November 15 are $90. Purchase tickets here.

Tours depart at these stated times (so a quick reminder: if you plan to tour the Check-in House, you’ll need to arrive before your stated tour group’s departure time). Sunday – 3 p.m., 3:30 p.m., 4:00 p.m., 4:45 p.m., 5:15 p.m., 5:45 p.m., 6:15 p.m. There is also a self-guided Sunday Walking Tour from Noon to 3 p.m. Visitors will see the same historic houses, festively decorated for the holidays, but without the food.
