More about the House and Garden Tour 2019

Celebrate 62 Years of Touring! Saturday, May 11, 4 – 7 p.m. – Sunday, May 12, 1 – 5 p.m.

The Capitol Hill Restoration Society’s annual House & Garden Tour is one of the highlights of the Capitol Hill calendar. Every year for 62 years our friends have opened the best homes and gardens of Capitol Hill to tour-goers.  Don’t miss this special Mother’s Day weekend treat. The $40 tickets are just $35 if bought prior to the tour weekend. Tour proceeds fund CHRS’s award-winning activities in preservation, planning and education.
